Alta Lake Quartzite

A distinguished green-grey defines these quartzite flagstones, sourced from deposits in Brazil. This quartzite presents a sophisticated interplay of grey and khaki-green tones, often with a subtle silvery mica sheen that glimmers along the natural cleavage planes. The fine-grained structure ensures exceptional durability, making these flagstones ideal for patios, pathways, and garden landscaping, while the natural split finish provides outstanding slip resistance, even when wet. Formed from quartz-rich sandstone under immense pressure, this stone is renowned for its exceptionally high flexural strength, allowing for thinner sections without compromising performance.
