“Romancing the Stone”
Featuring: Quartz Sweet Water Gold
At KRC Rock, we are passionate about our products and believe that each stone has a unique story to tell. Utilizing natural stone forged from the earth itself adds a primal beauty to your home and landscape that can be as unique as a fingerprint. Knowing the type of rock, its origin and the process by which it has entered your landscaping or countertops is an amazing story that goes beyond the name on the label.
This month KRC Rock presents…
It has been once said that Sweet Water Gold Quartzite is the perfect stone. Quarried from deep in the high elevation mountains of Northern Idaho, there are not many other types of stone that match the quality of Sweet Water Gold. This stone is a rare beauty, with shimmering textures and splashes of brilliant gold and white colors that dance across its surface. The Quartz Sweet Water stone’s balanced colors and exceptionally flat surface makes it an excellent choice for many stone applications. The consistency of thickness also allows for approximately 200-250 square feet of coverage per ton.
Quartzite:
A hard metamorphic rock transformed from sandstone. The sandstone is converted into quartzite through heating and pressure usually related to tectonic compression within orogenic belts. Pure quartzite is usually white to grey. Quartzite often occurs in various shades of pink and red due to varying amounts of iron oxide. Other colors are due to impurities of minor amounts of other materials.
It's a beautiful day to buy rock!
