Our Andesite is extracted from the large volcanic mountain range of South America, the Andes (Andesite is named after the Andes). Indeed, andesite is common in all the mountain-building zones that rim the Pacific Ocean.

Our Andesite is a results from the melting and assimilation of rock fragments by magma rising to the surface.
