Sandstone is made of compressed particles of silica, the mineral that makes up sand. When sand is piled on top itself over time, with a considerable amount of weight, this sedimentary rock is formed.
it is made up of multiple elements forming a solid rock which is found at beachs on the sides of cliffs
the elements in sandstone
Calcite
No, sandstone is not a pure substance. Sandstone is a mixture of eroded rock particles (grains of sand) that have been put under pressure over millions of years until they have formed a solid (sandstone) rock layer.Sandstone is a sedimentary rock, mainly of sand-sized mineral particles or rock fragments. Sandstone is mainly composed of quartz or feldspar.
Sedimentary rock varies greatly in mineral composition. For instance, sandstone is largely quartz; limestone is largely calcite; and claystone is largely clay minerals.
Sandstone has dull lustre.

red sandstone
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock.
Sandstone is not a mineral, it is a rock type.
No. Sandstone is not a mineral, it is a rock type.
Sandstone is not a mineral because it does not have a definite composition, and often contains several different minerals.
Sandstone is grainy, porous, and can be found to contain fossils.
Sandstone does not have luster and is classified as dull. Sandstone does not have either fracture or cleavage either because it is a rock rather than a mineral.
Sedimentary rock
Quartz is predominate.
granite
Sandstone will often contain feldspar, but some sandstones are composed entirely of quartz.
The three mineral recources are limestone, sandstone, and granite. This came to be a huge advantage to the ancient Egyptians to build structures, and is still an advantage to Egyptians nowadays.
The answer is sandstone.
