Sand is mostly quartz, it's an inert crystalized silica so it's not the same as rock dusts or greensand. Greensand is a silicate too but it contains potassium and iron which will break down over a long period of time. Rock dusts are from weathered volcanic deposits (like Azomite) or sedimentary deposits or contain both like glacial rock dusts. Rock dusts generally contain a wide variety of trace minerals.
