The sandstone from the quarry, is not layered in bands as is most sedimentary rock, but in swirls and circles. This natural rock formation and colour allows this quarry to have a competitive advantage over other suppliers of sandstone, even those on the other side of the hill at Helidon. The colour is sought after for many end uses including cladding on up-market residential developments in China.
The stone is ideal for use in building as blocks, tiles, pavers, landscape, complex and simple profiling, sculpting and aggregate. Two computer controlled wire saws are in operation.
