silicate mudstone

http://resource.geosciml.org/classifier/cgi/lithology/silicate_mudstone

definition

Mudstone that contains less than 10 percent carbonate minerals.

note

Operational distinction of this category will typically be based on whether or not the rock fizzes when hydrochloric acid is applied--the rock is silicate mudstone if it does not fizz. The quantitative '10 percent' criteria is fuzzy.
