Question:

What is quartz sandstone made of?

I know sandstone is a sedimentary rock and quartz is igneous but what is it made of? Little particles of quartz?

Answer:

Quartz often is cut according to where the crystals are. That means that many are full of flaws, which can have coloured material between the faults. It could be considered a crack, but it's probably where two crystals meet.
