Answer: The given statement is True.

A nonconformity is one of the types of unconformity ( that indicates gap between geological records) , which is primarily formed between sedimentary rocks and metamorphic or igneous rocks.

When the sedimentary rocks are deposited over the already existing and eroded igneous or metamorphic rocks, they form Nonconformities.

Thus, given statement is true.
