Cretaceous Sandstone

£2.25£6.00 ex VAT

Specimens of Sandstone, collected from Philpots Quarry, West Sussex, in the UK. This sandstone is from the Wealden Group (Hastings sub-group), which dates it to the Lower Cretaceous. This makes these rocks approximately 110 million years old. This Cretaceous sandstone is yellow to buff in coloured, and particularly fine grained. It exhibits large scale cross bedding, which is indicative of fast flowing tidal currents. It is quite soft , friable and flaggy in places and so is extracted mainly for concreting and building sand. These specimens are available in multiple sizes and come supplied in a white card tray with information label.

We also supply Cretaceous Sandstone thin sections for microscope study which are available to buy HERE.
