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.
