Sandstone is made up of lightly compacted or cemented grains of sand. It should feel gritty to the finger and the grains should be visible. The grains will be mainly silica grains.

Is sieving sand from stones reversible?
Sieving sand from stones is a physical process that separates the two based on their size differences. This process is reversible because the sand and stones can be easily separated again by using the same sieving method. By passing the mixture through a sieve, the smaller particles (sand) will fall through the sieve while the larger particles (stones) will be left behind, allowing for the separation to be reversed.
