1961J. Braunstein in Bull. Amer. Assoc. Petroleum Geologists XLV. 2017/2, I dare to submit two new terms... These are, ‘calciclastic’.., referring to clastic carbonate rocks, and, ‘siliciclastic’.., referring to clastic non-carbonate rocks (which are almost exclusively silicon-bearing, either as forms of quartz or as silicates). 1976Nature 3 June 440/1 Two major subdivisions are considered—the siliciclastic and carbonate tidal deposits. Recent siliciclastic examples include the classic tidal flats of the North Sea, [etc.].
