Clastic Dikes are a kind of dike that is sedimentary in origin, as opposed to igneous. Sometimes reffered to as 'sandstone dikes', these dikes are most commonly found within another sedimentary unit, as a form of soft sediment deformation. More uncommonly, clastic dikes can be basement hosted - that is, the sedimentary dike is found within an igneous or metamorphic mass, such as a batholith or a pluton.
