Gold Rush quartzite mini ledge

Gold Rush sparkles. It is a quartzite with a light silver base, heavy mica content and gold accents, so the surface glints in the sun. It comes in the popular mini ledge cut, thin strips of stone stacked in tight horizontal lines. That clean, linear look works on outdoor kitchens, entry columns and planter walls. It fits modern homes and also brightens more traditional designs where you want a touch of shine.

Silver, mica and gold

The mica in Gold Rush catches light and gives the stone its sparkle. Gold accents warm up the silver base.

Quartzite is a dense, hard stone.

Gold Rush is a bright stone, so it can lighten a dark corner of a patio or a shaded entry. Up close, the flecks of mica give it a lively, textured face.

What mini ledge means

Mini ledge is a narrow ledge stone cut. The pieces stack into slim, tight rows that create strong horizontal lines.

It suits accent walls, kitchen islands and column wraps. See our stone veneer ideas.

Mini ledge is a thin, stacked look, so it is often installed as a facing over a solid wall or column. Ask staff about the right setting method and mortar for your surface.

Planning a ledge project

Measure the surface in square feet and bring the numbers. Staff can help you estimate how much stone you need.

Stone is sold by weight, and pricing is quoted by phone or at the yard. For a silver flagstone, look at Storm Mountain.
