Black Slatestone is a fine-grained, foliated, homogeneous metamorphic rock. Black Slatestone that we offer is widely used as roofing slates, also called roofing shingles. Also, Black Slatestone is often used for interior & exterior flooring and wall cladding. Black Slatestone is installed and set on mortar and grouted along the edges. Sealants are often used on tiles to improve durability and appearance, increase stain resistance, reduce efflorescence and to increase or reduce surface smoothness.
