бор

A porous, sedimentary rock formed mostly from the skeletal remains of marine organisms. Bedding planes and joints increase the permeability. It is relatively soft but, when uplifted, can maintain an upland landscape as the permeability allows the rapid removal of water which slows weathering and erosional degradation.
