This is almost certainly an old chestnut, but it was new to me so I thought I’d share it anyway :)

A little loose but couldn’t resist

Here's some more clues that don't really warrant their own individual posts. Enjoy.

Note: I could not get away from the word "sort" so I really needed a way to get rid of the letter R while still maintaining &lit status. I think this still results in a reasonable &lit as a geologist would certainly want a hammer (i.e. a geologist's hammer/pick).
