Best Answer

Sandstone is made chiefly of quartz or feldspar grains, and limestone of calcium carbonate grains. Sand grains are usually formed by the erosion of older rocks. Calcium carbonate grains may be formed by the evaporation of sea water, or by the deposition of the exoskeletons of sea creatures.
