Answer:

D- Cementation

Step-by-step explanation:

Cementation, in geology, hardening and welding of clastic sediments (those formed from preexisting rock fragments) by the precipitation of mineral matter in the pore spaces. It is the last stage in the formation of a sedimentary rock.

Hope this helps!
