Material Info

Origin of Fossil Mint Sandstone

Fossil Mint sandstone is predominantly quarried in Northern India, particularly in the regions of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. These areas are renowned for their rich geological formations, which have developed over millions of years, resulting in the unique characteristics of Fossil Mint sandstone.

The sandstone is notable for its warm hues, ranging from cream and beige to subtle yellows and oranges, often featuring natural fossil imprints that add distinctive patterns to each slab. This natural variation makes it a popular choice for both traditional and contemporary garden designs. 

The extraction and processing of Fossil Mint sandstone in these Indian regions have become significant contributors to the local economy, providing employment opportunities and supporting communities. The stone's durability and aesthetic appeal have led to its widespread use in landscaping and construction projects worldwide.

With its soft cream, beige, and golden tones, and unique fossil-like details, this natural stone brings a timeless charm at a lower cost.

FAQs - Fossil Mint Sandstone

Do Fossil Mint Slabs Have Consistent Thickness?

Typically, these slabs are calibrated to a thickness of 22mm. However, due to the natural properties of Sandstone, there can be a tolerance of up to +/- 3mm

What Slab Sizes can I Expect To Find In The Mixed Packs?

The mixed-size pack for this Sandstone includes the following slab dimensions:

  • 90cm x 60cm
  • 60cm x 60cm
  • 60cm x 29cm
  • 29cm x 29cm

The two smaller sizes (60cm x 29cm and 29cm x 29cm) are cut to 29cm to allow for an approximate 10mm joint.

Note: As this is a natural product, there may be slight size tolerances especially with the edges being Hand Dressed. It's important to account for these variations when planning your project layout, as variations in size will mean that joint widths are almost certain to vary throughout the patio.

This is perfectly normal for this type of material and adds to its natural charm. If you require millimeter accuracy, porcelain tiles may be a better option.

What Is The Edge Detail On These Sandstone Pavers?

The edge detail is hand-dressed, meaning each edge is carefully chipped by hand to create a natural, textured look. This gives the paving a rustic, timeless appearance, perfect for traditional or natural designs.

How Should I Maintain Fossil Mint Paving?

Regular sweeping to remove debris and occasional cleaning with a mild soapy solution will help maintain their appearance. Sealing the slabs can enhance their colour and provide added protection against stains and weathering.

How Much Colour Variation Will There Be?

The amount of colour variation depends on the quantity ordered. Smaller orders (less than 15m²) may have less variation, while larger orders (e.g., 20m² or more) are likely to display a broader range of natural tones and patterns.

Will wet stone look different in colour?

Yes, natural stone often appears darker when wet because water enhances its natural colour and pattern. This effect is temporary and returns to normal as the stone dries.

What Will the Surface Be Like on This Product?

Fossil Mint is a slightly softer sandstone compared to options like Raj, Brown, or Grey. As a result, it has a more pronounced riven surface with natural variations in texture. This adds to its rustic charm, but it’s important to note that the surface may be less uniform than harder sandstones.
