This article is about an older version of DF.

This is the only layer you will find Bituminous coal and Lignite which are needed for coke, for furnaces. They also contain large amounts of ore such as iron.


This article is about an older version of DF.

Sedimentary stone layers contain Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, and Template:L.

Template:L*, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L*, Template:L*, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L, Template:L and Template:L layers are sedimentary.

(* These also function as Template:L.)

The name of a sedimentary layer appears white on the embark menu.

Sedimentary layers are, on average, the most economically valuable of the four mineral layers. They are your only source of Template:L and Template:L, vital for fueling non-Template:L forges and for the Template:L Template:L-making requires (especially if you lack Template:Ls). They are much richer in Template:L Template:Ls than other rock formations. Several sedimentary rocks - Template:L, Template:L, and Template:L - are Template:Les, required for Template:L-making and also being twice as valuable as normal stone, making them useful for Template:L or Template:L.

(In real world geology, sedimentary Template:L is formed by sediment. The sediment collects in constantly growing heaps and the pressure at the bottom eventually forms the sediment into stone.)
