Sandstone is actually a sedimentary rock formed by the
consolidation and compaction of sand, which is held together by a
natural cement, such as silica. Natural sandstone is an
extremely hard and tough material. Sandstone is typically the youngest
of the quartz-based stones, with each stone having a different level
of porosity, hardness and compressive strength.
Indian sandstone is suitable for domestic and commercial use.
Owing to their natural beauty, sandstones are used for interior as
well as exterior decoration including flooring, paving, cladding walls
and floors.

Description
Sandstone rocks are sedimentary rocks made from small grains of the
minerals quartz and feldspar. They often form in layers as seen in this
picture. They are often used as building stones. For thousands, even
millions of years, little pieces of our earth have been eroded-broken
down and worn away by wind and water. These little bits of our earth are
washed downstream where they settle to the bottom of the rivers, lakes,
and oceans. Layer after layer of eroded earth is deposited on top of
each. These layers are pressed down more and more through time, until
the bottom layers slowly turn into rock.
