And finally there is sandstone at the current surface. If that is correct, how did the sandstone instead of soil or marsh or bog or woodland like we see when we walk around today get to be the current surface?
Well, not necessarily, but sandstone, being more resistant to erosion would tend to protect whatever is beneath it.
Here is a hoodoo showing how a cap rock of sandstone can resist erosion from above and protect a column of mudstone or ash below it.
I understand that but how can sandstone be the top layer instead of the soil and dirt and loam and sand and pebbles be a top layer?
Can sandstone form at a topmost layer or the surface?
