Petrography
Conglomerates are debris rocks, the components of which have a diameter of over 2 mm and are rounded. Here, diverse rocks can be recognised as "Ingredients?: Reddish gneiss and rhyolite, darker green slate, mica slate and phyllite as well as quartzite and quartz pebbles.
Petrogenesis
Conglomerates are solidified pebbles, as they occur in river valleys or on sea shores. Depending on the catchment area, most different rock types - like in this case - can be deposited together, which possibly never could have been generated next to each other. The binding material is very solid and hard; a metamorphosis caused an intensive and permanent "Welding? of the coarse rock components under high pressures and temperatures. Therefore, they seem to merge into each other without seams.
