Slate - A very fine grained metamorphic rock derived from sedimentary rock shale. Characterized by an excellent parallel cleavage entirely independent of original bedding, by which cleavage the rock may be split easily into relatively thin slabs.
Iron Mountain flagstone comes in pieces that are approximately 18” and larger. The 1” Minus covers approximately 200 sq ft per ton and can be veneered into countertops and fireplaces or mortared patios. The 1” – 1 ½” covers approximately 125 sq ft per ton and is ideal for patios and walkways. The 1 ½” – 2 ½” Iron Mountain flagstone can be used for steps, hearthstones or patios.
Tumbled Iron Mountain has smooth, rounded edges for that stone cottage patio look. It can also be veneered onto walls or fireplaces.
