Black Basalt Cobbles:
A volcanic (igneous) stone that has been used in architecture for centuries and is thought to be one of the main components of oceanic crust. The fissures and small holes in the surface are evidence of the eartha s natural gasses flowing through and escaping from the stone. Basalt are rich in magnesium, feldspar, pyroxene and iron, with hints of olivine and amphibole; all of which are siliceous materials similar to those in a granite.

General Information
Basalt is a material with naturally occurring pin holes that may remain unfilled or be factory filled with resin. Basalt will stain when exposed to oil and highly-pigmented liquids.

Tips for Basalt Maintenance-
Choose cement-filled or unfilled materials as an alternative.
Always seal this material prior to grouting or use.
Always use a grout that is similar in color to the stone to avoid a picture-frame effect.
To reduce the appearance of staining in flooring & kitchen counter top applications, always wipe up spills immediately. Oil and highly-pigmented liquids can penetrate and stain the stone and may need poultice to remove the stain.
