Geomaterials as construction aggregates: a state-of-the-art
Construction aggregates derived from primary resources either by crushing of sound rock masses (crushed stone aggregates) or from naturally occurring mining of sand and gravel and crushed stone for aggregate production can involve child labor and comes with poor health and safety practices for the miners • Sand, gravel, and UN Sustainable Development Goals: Conflicts

Chemical Sand Consolidation: From Polymers to Nanoparticles
The chemical sand consolidation methods involve pumping of chemical materials, like furan resin and silicate non-polymer materials into unconsolidated sandstone formations, in order to minimize sand production with the fluids produced from the hydrocarbon reservoirs. The injected chemical material, predominantly polymer, bonds Introduction. Sand, gravel, and crushed stone (collectively referred to herein as aggregates) are the most in-demand materials on the planet in terms of volume. 1, 2 Together, they are a central foundation of our economies and integral to sectors such as construction, infrastructure, electronics, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. 3 The growing Sand, gravel, and UN Sustainable Development Goals: Conflicts

Sustainability of the global sand system in the Anthropocene
First, Greenland's deltas are dominated by moraine material that has a grain-size distribution from very-fine-grained particles known as “glacier flour” to large stones. Commercial natural sand and gravel deposits suitable for concrete production would ideally have 60% gravel and 40% sand, with little fines. 87 Fluvial transport distancesConcrete production has a lot of environmental impacts causing damage to the most fertile layer of the earth.

The effects of different sandstone aggregates on concrete
The influence of different sandstone aggregates on the strength of the concrete was evaluated. According to the results obtained, subarkose–arkose, sublitharenite–litharenite and arkose aggregates which have clay cement caused approximately a 40–50% reduction in concrete strength when compared to subarkose, Cement, natural sand, crushed stone, and water are the four primary ingredients of concrete. Sand constitutes two thirds of the composition of concrete; every construction, from small to large, requires a huge amount of sand as demonstrated in Fig. 1. It has a major influence on concrete’s flowability, durability, strength, weight, and shrinkage.A sustainable solution to excessive river sand mining by

Sandstone: Identification, Pictures & Info for Rockhounds
In general, Sandstone looks like sand grains cemented together, often with visible layers. The sand grains are medium-sized, ranging from 1/4 to 2 mm across, and can be rounded to angular. Sandstone is usually brownish, tan, reddish, gray, or off-white, but can be almost any color depending on its mineralogy. Sandstone.showed that the maximum percentage of stone dust, which could replace river sand in concrete mixture was 40% with the strength 15% higher than that of concrete with natural sand only. The higher the percentages of stone dust, which were used to replace a part of sand in concrete mixtures resulted the lower slump of concrete.Sustainable development: Using stone dust to replace a
