Radiometric dating is not useful to directly determine the age of **a sedimentary** rock.
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of sediments, which often include materials from different sources and ages, making it difficult to determine a specific age for the entire rock layer using radiometric dating. Instead, radiometric dating is more commonly used for igneous and metamorphic rocks.
