Sandstone typically ranges in color from tan, yellow, and brown to red, gray, and even white. The specific color depends on the mineral composition and the presence of iron oxide, which can impart reddish hues. Other factors, such as the environment of formation and the amount of organic material, can also influence its coloration.

Does sandstone have any mottled in appearance?
Sandstone is composed of many individual grains of sand. Thus its colour will depend entirely on the colours of the source of sand. (And of any subsequent staining.) It could be quite uniform, or it could be mottled. A fine sandstone has had its source sands pre-selected by some process, and these are likely to have had colour sorting done as well quite by accident. For example, slates are usually quite uniform in colour, largely determined by the deposition process, and the colour of the source system. [Slates would not be considered sandstones because the particles are too fine, but the principle applies.] Arkansas Stone is a very fine grained natural sandstone used as an abrasive.
