The sedimentologist primarily uses texture, sedimentary structures, the vertical sequence of texture and structures within the sandstone body as well as both the geometry of the body and its associated lithologies to help answer this question.

Silicates predominate. . sands are virtually all deposited in marine waters and consist primarily of skeletal grains, oolites plus other coated grains,

Production and Provenance of Sandn the first, we are concerned with the processes involved in the production of sand, how sand grains come into being. In the second, we wish to know what the source rocks were and where the source area was. It is presumed that a sand body or formation itself contains much of the information needed t

Transportation and Deposition of Sandlaciers also move sand and probably a significant number of the world’s sand grains have, at one time ór another in their history, been transported by ice. But the dominant agents are water and wind. Although one can but surmise, probably every sand grain on earth, from loose sand on a modern Chilea

Sandy Depositional Systemswhere and under what conditions a sandstone was deposited—to better envision its areal extent, its internal properties, and its relation to associated sediments. Sandy depositional systems also play a key role in helping us assign a basin to its proper type and in relating it to a plate tectonic or

We need to go from a provincial to a cosmopolitan outlook. Only by placing the local study in a larger framework can we really understand the sandstone in question. Hence in this chapter we
