metamorphic rock
It is a rock formed from the metamorphism of sandstone that primarily consists of quartz. The color ranges from white, gray, red, to brown, typically being light-colored. It has a vitreous luster. Unlike marble, it does not react with dilute hydrochloric acid, making it easy to distinguish between the two. It is characterized by the presence of staurolite.
