Slate is a strong and beautiful material used to great effect indoors and certainly makes an exceptional exterior paving stone. Slate is a foliated metamorphic rock, which in geology terms means it is made up of many thin sheets consisting of a derivative of shale and created under relatively low pressure and temperature conditions.

Slate is found in different varieties with differing levels of density or porosity and those with a higher moisture absorption rate are not recommended for external use or in colder areas. Slate also comes in a variety of colours such as black, shades of blue, green or brown. Slate has an uneven surface with cleft planes, and a low to medium rate of liquid absorption.
