Andesite Stones and Its Composition

The natural stone that is often used to beautify the building is andesite stone. The name andesite is adapted from the Andes Mountains. It is because many andesite stones were found near the Andes Mountains. Andesite is a volcanic rock whose formation occurs above the ground surface. Andesite is composed of minerals with refined crystal grains (small size). Andesite stones are formed from magma with temperatures between 900 to 1,100 degrees Celsius. The formation of these fine mineral grains occurs due to the rapid formation of andesite rock from lava flowing on the earth’s surface.

Another characteristic of andesite stone is it has fairly dense pores and structure. But the structure of andesite stone density is still under the granite stone. Generally, andesite stone has a gray color. Environmental and weather conditions can produce dark brown andesite stones. Construction fields usually use andesite stone, such as the manufacture of runways, bridges, and roads. At the same time, the carved and fine andesite stone can be used as natural stone material to beautify the building.
