PETROLOGIC DATA

Rock Number: 1

Rock Type: sandstone
Descriptors:
schistose
lithic
Field Description:

-grey and beige weathering bedded sandstone
-beds vary from 10 (?) cm to > 2 m in thickness
-has a patchy grey with beige splotches to beige with grey splotches
-this appears to be related to the degree of calcite cementing as the beige is HB-bearing feldspathic calcsilicate
-sandstone appears to be composed of lithic fragments but this may be a metamorphic feld. aggregate texture
