bedding planeA layer in a series of sedimentary beds that marks a change in the type of deposits.

3 |
bedding planesurface parallel to the surface of a deposition of sediment. In shales, the rocks split along the bedding plane; in some sandstones however, the split is marked by changes in colour and grain size.

bedding planeHorizontal plane of sedimentary stone in the position of its original formation.

5 |
bedding planeA surface parallel to the surface of deposition, which may or may not have a physical expression. The original attitude of a bedding plane should not be assumed to have been horizontal. See also CROSS-BEDDING.

6 |
bedding planeThe bedding plane is the surface that separates one layer (or bed) of sedimentary stone from another.
|
7 |
bedding planeSurface separating layers of sedimentary rocks and deposits. Each bedding plane marks termination of one deposit and beginning of another of different character, such as a surface separating a sandstone bed from an overlying mudstone bed. Rock tends to breaks or separate, readily along bedding planes.
