Mures Quartzite, Romania Beige Quartzite Slabs & Tiles

The andesite rock can be used as construction stone and also for decoration. It can be found in different colour variations, but the dominant colour is dark brown, in some layers with green, orange and grey iridescence.
Also it is found in different thickness and different surfaces (plain and with unevenness). As far as durability in time and pressure resistance is concerned it is very safe.
It is a volcanic rock, with a fine granulation, but very hard. The name of the andesite rock comes from the name of the Andes mountains, where it was found for the first time, where the first houses and strongholds were built from this solid rock.
After each volcanic eruption the hot lava was flowing in thin streams, in time these cooled down and more layers
were deposited.
In time the mineral salts between the layers started working and thus a wide range of colours appeared on the surface of the rock. Since the hot lava did not flow with the same regularity, the thickness of the rock between the layers also differs.
The rock that we mine and sell is between 1 cm and 3 cm thick. The slabs are not uniform meaning they do not
have a regular form, they are rustic.
The andesite rock is used for fences, plinth for houses, cladding constructions, pavements, yards, interior and exterior decorations, staircases, garden bakestone, restaurants, pizzerias, cellars, wine cellars.
The rock is placed on wooden pallets, foil packaged and tied with protection bands.
