in a delta from sand grains deposited, buried, and cemented together by minerals.


Does sand stone have calcite in it?

That would depend on which minerals cemented the sand grains together. Some sandstones are cemented together with the mineral calcite, others are not.

Sandstone is most likely the result of compacting and cementing particles together.


How sand stones form?

Most sandstone is composed of quartz and/or feldspar because these are the most common minerals in the Earth's crust, and it is formed from cemented grains that are either fragments of pre-existing rock or mono-minerallic crystals. Typically, the cements binding these grains together are calcite, clay, or silica.The formation of sandstone is broken apart into 2 stages:1. a layer (or layers) of sand accumulates as a result of sedimentation, either from water (as in a river, lake, sea etc) or from air (desert). The sedimintation occurs by the sand settling out from suspension (ceasing to be rolled or bounced along in the bottom of a body of water) or ground surface.2. once it has accumulated, the sand becomes sandstone when it is compacted by pressure of overlying deposits and cemented by the precipitation of minerals within the pore spaces between sand grains.

How chemical weathering turns some sandstones into a pile of sand?

For chemical weathering to turn a sandstone into a pile of sand, the sandstone would have to have been cemented by a mineral that was easily attacked by weakly acidic rainfall, most likely calcite. The acidic rainfall would dissolve the cementing material through chemical reaction, leaving the chemically resistant sand grains behind.

What is sandstone made up of?

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. [Finer grained material would be a siltstone, of which slate is a metamorphosed variety. ]


How resistant to weathering is Limestone?

Not very, over geologic time. Limestone is vulnerable to chemical attack from naturally acidic rainfall and runoff.
