A sandstorm will have grains in it depending upon the area it has attacked!!
If it is targeted at your house, grain storage sites it may contain them! But if it has occurred in a place like a desert where will it get the grain from?
he said sand stone not sand storm. read right.

∙ 9y agoYes: it's a sedimentary rock. However the layers, or beds, are not necessarily deposited horizontally. Some sandstones form from delta or desert deposits, and these typically contain a graining effect called 'cross-bedding' due to sandbank or dune mechanisms.

∙ 14y agono it has rounded grains and if been formed by magma then has cooled very quickly and has quickly dried but has not given enough time for the bonds to join together.

∙ 11y agoNo, it has rounded grains and is very porous (one of the weakest/softest type of rock)

∙ 10y agoGenerally, rocks that are crystalline do not occur in layers but Sedimentary rocks that occur in layers do have minerals in form of crystals present in them. Example is in Quartz Sandstone.

What do sandstone look like?
a lot of sand compacted into layers
What is sandstone made from----------- that settles in layers at the ---------- of seas and oceans?
sand, bottom
Where are the oldest layers of a sandstone rock located?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rocks form from sediments that deposited by the wind and water. Over the time those sediments will get pressed and cemented together. It can take millions of years for sediments to become a rock. So the oldest layers of a sandstone are on a bottom.
Describe the sequence of events in the formation of a sandstone?
The formation of sandstone involves two principal stages. First, a layer or layers of sand accumulates as the result of sedimentation, and then the sand becomes sandstone when it is compacted by pressure of overlying deposits.
From what rock is sandstone formed?
Sandstone is formed of layers of eroded rock grains deposited in shallow seas. Under immense pressure, the grains eventually become sandstone. Sandstone comes in many colors. Red sandstone is colored by iron oxide.
What are the the layers of sandstone?
The layers of any sedimentary rock are called strata.
How many layers does sandstone have?
they can have 1 or more
What rock is made of layers of sand?
SANDSTONE
What is a smooth stone with layers called?
The most common smooth stone with layers is sandstone, The differently colored layers are caused as different layers of sediment build up. The Painted Dessert is one of the most spectacular examples of sandstone layers.
What are the layers of sandstone called?
The layers of any sedimentary rock are called strata.
Are rocks formed in layers?
Sedimentary rocks. An example is sandstone.
Where was shale formed?
Shale forms in layers of sandstone or lime.

What are the rock layers of balanced rock in Arches National Park?
Erosion removed the youngest layers of rock, but all the rock is sandstone.
