Sediments become rocks by lithification. 1  compaction-lithification occurs as the weight of overlying sediments and rocks squeeze the sediments together into rock. 2  cementation-precipitates from groundwater and the growth of secondary minerals between the fragments may cement the rock.ediments become rocks by lithification. 1  compaction-lithification occurs as the weight of overlying sediments and rocks squeeze the sediments together into rock. 2  cementation-precipitates from groundwater and the growth of secondary minerals between the fragments may cement the rock.
