Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Stone has been used by man for construction purposes for many thousands of years. Geology, which seeks to describe and explain these materials, is a relatively new science, having development largely since the early 1800's. As a consequence the nomenclature employed by the construction industry is often scientifically inaccurate. The main groups of stone which are on offer from the stone industry for use in building are as follows: Limestone & Sandstone, Sedimentary Rocks, Slate & Marble, Metamorphic Rocks, Granite, And Igneous Rock.
