Siliceous, argillaceous, calcareous are all Sedimentary Rock.
Siliceous rocks are sedimentary rocks that have silica (SiO2) as the principal constituent.
Argillaceous components are fine-grained (less than 2 µm) CLAY minerals such as kaolinite.
Calcareous is partly composed of calcium carbonate, in other words, containing lime or being chalky.
