Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed largely of the mineral calcite (calcium carbonate: CaCO3).
Limestone's often contain variable amounts of silica in the form of chert or flint, as well as varying amounts of clay, silt and sand as disseminations, nodules, or layers within the rock. Limestone may be crystalline, clastic, granular, or massive, depending on the method of formation.
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of sand-size mineral or rock grains. Most sandstone is composed of quartz and/or feldspar because these are the most common minerals in earth's crust. Like sand, sandstone may be any color, but the most common colors are tan, brown, yellow, red, gray, and white.
