Kanmantoo Bluestone
Features and Benefits
Distinctive
Each piece of Kanmantoo Bluestone is unique in size, shape and colour. Every stone is split by hand by our quarry workers who are trained to know exactly how and where to work the stone.
Naturally multi-coloured
Unlike Victorian bluestone which is plain blue, South Australian Kanmantoo Bluestone is multi-coloured. The interior of the stone is usually pale blue-grey or beige. However, ochres, reds and browns, the occasional pinks and purples, and even green can also be seen. These various hues are caused by ferric oxide and other minerals which have been deposited in the joints and bedding planes of the bluestone, over the approximately 300 million years it has taken to form.
Durable
Kanmantoo Bluestone is rated to 209 MPa (megapascals) which makes it an extremely stong and durable driveway option.
