Chellah Grey is quarried from a bedrock quarry near the town of Thala in Tunisia. Occasionally this limestone will contain some hairline quartz veining. These veins are a natural characteristic of the material and do not compromise the integrity of the stone. This is a sedimentary stone that is formed in shallow seas and is composed mainly of calcite calcium carbonate. One of the unique characteristics of this limestone is the existence of some small shells and fossils that may appear throughout the tile or slabs.
Piece to piece variation in shade or color are inherent in all-natural stone products; therefore, when installing natural stone tile, it is recommended to mix tiles from several boxes at a time during installation to achieve the best range of color. As natural stone products, it is recommended that these be sealed to extend their longevity.
