Sandstones

Cliff Palace - a 700-year-old Anasazi ruin built of sandstone in southwestern Colorado

Sand has been generated in enormous quantities worldwide as erosion ground down many generations of mountain ranges.  The sands were deposited in layers, usually under water, that have subsequently been solidified into sandstones.  Because of the great variety of environments in which they were created, sandstones are available in a wide range of colors, shapes, and textures. The following links show a few of the sandstones that are available.
