●RED SANDSTONE | Sandstone is made up of well-sorted and well-rounded grains of quartz. This indicates that the clasts in the rocks have traveled a long distance from their source and were heavily eroded along the way. This sample is red due to the inclusion of iron in the chemical structure of the rock. This sample is red due to the inclusion of iron in the chemical structure of the rock
●GREAT FOR GEOLOGY CLASSROOMS | Ideal for students to compare with white sandstone to understand physical expression of chemical differences. This set of six samples is excellent for group study and examination
●GEOLOGIST SELECTED | Each specimen is selected and hand processed by an actual geologist, ensuring each sample exhibits defining features
●LOCALLY PROCESSED | Our rock and mineral samples are sourced from a variety of locations around the world and are processed in Victor, NY
●INDIVIDUALLY PACKAGED & LABELED | Each specimen sample is packaged in a transparent bag, and is labeled & barcoded for easy identification

RAW RED SANDSTONE

1" Sedimentary Rock Specimen

Sandstone is made up of well-sorted and well-rounded grains of quartz. This indicates that the clasts in the rocks have traveled a long distance from their source and were heavily eroded along the way. This sample is red due to the inclusion of iron in the chemical structure of the rock. Excellent for classroom mineral study and identification. Ideal for students to compare with white sandstone to understand physical expression of chemical differences.

SELECTED & LOCALLY PROCESSED BY A GEOLOGIST

Each and every specimen is selected and hand processed by an actual geologist, ensuring that each sample exhibits defining features. Our rocks & minerals are sourced from a variety of locations around the world and processed by hand in Victor, NY.
