Sandstones

Sandstones are sedimentary rocks composed mainly of sand-sized mineral grains, usually quartz, feldspar, and mica. They often have a gritty texture and come in a variety of colors, including red, yellow, brown, and white. Sandstones are commonly found in layers or beds and are formed through the consolidation and compaction of sand over millions of years. These rocks are used in construction, architecture, and as a decorative material due to their durability and attractive appearance.
