Some of the coloration in sandstone comes from its cement. There are three primary cement types: silica, calcite, and iron oxide. Silica and calcite are general very light in color or even colorless. They are also the most common types of cement. Iron oxide, however, is rust-red and often stains the sandstone to match. Texture of Sandstone
