Igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary are all found in parts of the Western Cordillera
It all depends where in the Cordillera you are looking
You can find Granite (Igneous)n the Sierra Nevadas and Colorado Rockies
In the Grand Canyon in Arizona, you can find Sandstone, Shale, Mineral, Schist and various igneous intrusions (first 3 sedimentary, Schist is metamorphic)
Basalt (igneous) can be found in the Columbia Hand basin
Travertine (sedimentary) is found in Yellowstone
And those are just a few of the rock types found in the USA segment of the Western Cordillerra
