Are sandstone marine deposits, and if the same is true of marine deposits, why not the same conditions?
The formation of sandstone and limestone and is not determined by marine or continental sedimentary, as sedimentary rocks, but by the material source, sedimentary environment and tectonic conditions to determine. Terrigenous clastic formation needs to have the premise of the handling of sandstone;
No Sandstone can be produced in both continental and marine environments, for example, a large part of the river sediment is sandstone, and there are a lot of sandstone deposits in Lake sediments!Limestone (a kind of carbonate) is not only marine facies, but also can be found in continental sediments.The formation conditions of sandstone (clastic rock) and limestone (carbonate rock) are different, and the sandstone is formed by the deposition of clastic particles.
The limestone is shallow water, warm, clear and have a certain degree of salinity of the water as a condition, and there are terrigenous debris transport, then there will be no clear water, so, sandstone and limestone is the relationship between the shift
