Sandstones
[gyara sashe | gyara masomin]Fins za su samo asali ne a cikin duwatsu masu laushi, galibi sandstone. Sandstone yana kwance, wanda ke samar da yankunan rauni, tare da yanayin yanayi da rushewa. Iron oxide da calcium carbonate siminti sandstones suna samar da fins.[1] Wadannan galibi ana ganin su a matsayin ciment mai rauni, idan aka kwatanta da ciment mai tsayayya da rushewa, amma a yankuna masu bushewa da semi-arid sun fi tsayayya. Wannan ya faru ne saboda rashin ruwa a cikin waɗannan yankuna wanda in ba haka ba zai iya yin amfani da sinadarai na iron oxide cements da calcium carbonate cements.
Saboda sandstones suna da dutse mai laushi, suna da manyan haɗin gwiwa da jiragen gado wanda ke ba da tashoshi da yawa don magudanar ruwa.
