both limestone and sandstone are highly permeable to water. As there are often toxic substances which leak from landfill, it is necessary to collect water which falls on the heap. For this reason, permeable rocks like limestone and sandstone are not the ideal basement for a landfill, and may require significant infrastructure to prevent contamination of the water table below the landfill.
They are ideal landfills if the need is there for drainage. Permeable rock has many uses in landfill. Landfill in areas that are naturally high in limestone or sandstone content would have no issues with a little more of either material in it.
Sandstone.
The layer of rock formed from sediments deposited on land is called sedimentary rock. This type of rock forms from the accumulation and compression of sediments, such as sand, silt, and clay, over long periods of time. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, shale, and limestone.
Land fill is the contents of your trash can.
gravel, sand, and limestone are all examples of aggregate land :)
land, sand, said, sail, fill
It depends which sort of land fill you mean. If it is a small rubbish dump on a local farm probably around 50 pieces of rubbish but if you are thinking about a major land fill, way more than 50 Billion pieces of rubbish would be in that land fill alone.
The rock that is a deposit of organic limestone on land is called travertine. Travertine is formed from the precipitation of calcium carbonate minerals from spring waters, making it a type of limestone that is often found in caves and around hot springs.
The fill that goes into land fill sites is human trash.
They can be. Most mountain ranges form when the land is thrust upward by tectonic activity, so the type of rock present depends on what rock is present to begin with. The cores of mountain ranges, though, are often made of granite and gneiss. Volcanic mountains are not made of limestone.
Ah, limestone is a beautiful mineral that can be found in nature. In Mesopotamia, a limestone peddler would likely be someone who sells this lovely stone to be used in building materials or art. Just imagine the warm glow of the sun reflecting off the limestone buildings in that ancient land, bringing joy to all who see them.
Many geologists believe that limestone deposits on land exist where ancient seas used to be. The moisture, over many centuries, created limestone.
No, their houses where made out of Grass and leaves. As they lived off the land they had.
