gravel

Coarse sediment consisting of pebbles or small fragments of rock, originating in the beds of lakes and streams or on beaches. Gravel is quarried for use in road building, railway ballast, and for an aggregate in concrete. It is obtained from quarries known as gravel pits, where it is often found mixed with sand or clay.

Some gravel deposits also contain placer deposits of metal ores (chiefly tin) or free metals (such as gold and silver).
