Terrigenous deposits are those that originate from land-based sources. These deposits primarily consist of materials eroded from continents, such as sand, silt, and clay, which are transported by rivers, wind, or glaciers and eventually settle on the ocean floor. The composition of terrigenous deposits is largely determined by the nature of the rocks from which the materials are derived, often including minerals like quartz, feldspar, and mica. These deposits are typically found near continental margins
