Michigan Geology | The Precambrian | Jacobsville Sandstone

Join us as we begin our journey through time looking at Michigan's geologic history - starting with the Precambrian formation the Jacobsville Sandstone. This sandstone houses the Jacobsville Aquifer, providing many Michigan residents access to water. This formation has also been sought after for its aesthetic appeal, resistance to extreme temperatures, and strength. This rock has been quarried dating back to the 19th century, providing good structural material for buildings found in many parts of Michigan along with Canada and other areas in the United States.
