Sandstone is composed of grains of weathered rock. Limestone is the skeletal remains of countless shelled creatures. Both took many centuries and much compression to form into a sedimentary rock. Limestone was frequent in Italy (that's why there are statues from it there) whereas sandstone was frequent in central Europe which caused the existence many statues from it there. Sculptors in Italy did not suffer from lung silicosis when compared with the artists in central Europe. Also the statues in Italy did not suffer from acid rains.
Many people confuse sand and clay as materials. Sand and clay are simply categories for sediment size. Sand is composed of sediments from 0.2 to 0.006 centimeters in size, and clay is composed of sediments less than 0.0004 centimeters in size, or 4 micrometers. Shale is formed from the compaction of clay and sandstone is formed from the compaction of sand. The only difference is sediment size, they can be made from any minerals.
The difference is that sandstone is composed of sand-sized particles, which are bigger than the silt particles which make up siltstone.
gypsum,sandstone and shale
permeability
Sandstone is extremely porous and absorbs liquids like a sponge.. Shale is nearly impervious to liquids.
Limestone, Sandstone, Shale
Because sandstone has wider particles than shale and this let's the water through.
gypsum,sandstone and shale
the answer is sandstone
pure sandstone = 10 ohm pure shale = 5 ohm
Basalt. Shale, Sandstone, and Limestone are all sedimentary rocks
shale
Shale forms in layers of sandstone or lime.
No. Shale forms from clay and silt, which are much finer than the sand that forms sandstone.
shale is metamorphic, which means time, pressure and temperature has altered it. Sandstone is sedimentary which means it was formed under water. generally sandstone is younder.
Quartzite
Because shale and sandstone don't let water pass them, but conglomerate does
