Rockhound. Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed of cemented weathered grains of rock, most abundantly, quartz grains from granite. Quartzite is metamorphosed sandstone, the product of intense pressure and heat which has caused the individual grains to recrystallize into larger crystals which are interlocked.uartzite is the metamorphic product of sandstone. During metamorphism, intense heat and/or pressure cause the quartz grains contained in the sandstone grow and recrystallize, â¦ interlocking together creating Quartzite. 4 people found this useful.
Sandstone is a clastic sedimentary rock that is made up of cemented sand grains (usually quartz) and has a gritty feel to it.  this is the term uesed when sand has be â¦ en compacted together under such force so as to be turned into a solid mass rather than individual grains of sand.it looks weird.ompaction forces out air and water that exists between the sand grains. Minerals form from the remaining concentrated solutions in a process called precipitation. These minerals act as a cement which binds the particles of sand together, creating sandstone.
