There are deposits of brown and red-brown sands to be found in the
Connecticut Valley. Two years ago we needed to find a specific size of
red-brown sand for a project in San Francisco. We ended up drying and
screening about 30,000 pounds of sand to get about 1000 pounds of just
what we were looking for.
