Geologist Jerry (aka The Jurassic Sandman) is proud to introduce our newest sand to the Jurassic Play Sand line up - 'GOLDEN CAMBRIAN BEACH SAND'. We are frequently asked by customers if we have a great Beach Sand? (I mean, who doesn't want to go to a great beach that has fantastic sand?). Well, that day has arrived because if you can't go the beach, we'll bring the beach to you! The all natural ... Golden Cambrian BeachSand ... after much searching - is here. And what a beauty it is... Consider the name: Golden - that's how we describe the color of this sand. We also thought light honey-colored and Amber were also appropriate. All are accurate depending on where you see it - outdoors in the Sun or in your office or classroom. True to our geological roots, we want you to know this sand is from the Cambrian Period on geologic time scale. That means it is Half-Billion Years old. Who else but geologists would prize a 'new' product that is so old? We do. Mother Nature creates amazing things but they take time to develop. Millions and millions of years of deposition then millions more of erosion followed by even more millions of being blown into desert sand dunes. Finally, the dunes are swallowed up by an encroaching rise in sea level and made into an ancient beach. It takes a long time for Mother Nature to do her work - in the case of our Golden Cambrian BeachSand - 500 of those million years periods to get it just right! And we do a little work too; our part is to search for possible candidates to add to our Jurassic Sands offerings.
