Sedimentary rocks often have layers and may contain fossils but will not have interlocking crystals. Igneous rocks have interlocking crystals, will not have layers or fossils except some volcanics, and are generally dense and hard. Metamorphic rocks can have interlocking crystals, foliated layers, deformed fossils, and be very dense.
