It is the most common type of sandstone in the world. Sandstone is quarried in many parts of the world, but the Salt Range Hills in Pakistan are one of the most important sources of sandstone. The Salt Range Hills are a mountain range located in the Punjab province of Pakistan. The range is about 200 kilometers long and 50 kilometers wide. The Salt Range Hills are composed of sandstone, limestone, and shale. The sandstone in the Salt Range Hills is a high-quality building stone. It is used for a variety of purposes, including construction, landscaping, and monuments.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not sources of sandstone.
