Sandstone is suitable for both domestic and
commercial use. It is highly acclaimed for its
natural Beauty, that makes it useful for interior as
well as exterior decoration. Because of its
architectural properties, sandstone is found suitable
medium that is used to clad walls and floors and
churn out an enamoring range of handcrafted
artifacts such as garden ornaments, sculptures and
other decorative items.

Sandstone texture and composition may be used to
interpret many things about the history of the sand,
including source area lithology, paleoclimate,
tectonic activity, processes acting in the
depositional basin, and time duration in the basin.
Remember that the source area is the land which is
weathering and eroding to supply Terrigenous debris
to the depositional basin. |

Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed of small grains
cemented by siliceous, felspathic, or calcareous cementing
material. The durability of rock depends on the cementing
material. Sandstone is often formed in layers and has varied
application as building stones. This coarse-grained
sedimentary
rock is formed by the consolidation and aggregation of sand
and held together by a natural cement, such as silica.
It is an extremely hard and tough material and consolidated
masses of sand deposited by moving water or by wind. some of
the sandstone are so homogeneous and soft that they are
capable of receiving ost elaborate carving and filigree work.
The color of the rock is largely determined by the cementing
material- iron oxides produces red or reddish-brown
sandstone, and the other materials produce sandstone in
white, grayish or yellowish sandstone. |
