Weathering, lithification, and sediments.

Well, you could have chemical weathering, exfoliation, ice wedging.

Chemical weathering is when a rock is broken down as a result of chemical reactions.

Exfoliation is when sheets of rock peel or flake as a result of weathering.

Ice wedging results by
freezing and thawing of water that seeps into cracks in rocks.

I hope these three ways help.
