Gravels

Gravels are small, rounded or angular stones typically ranging from 2 mm to 64 mm in diameter. They form naturally through the weathering and erosion of rocks, often carried and deposited by water, glaciers, or wind. Gravels are commonly used in construction, landscaping, and as a component of concrete. Their size, shape, and composition vary depending on their source and formation process. Because of their durability and drainage properties, gravels are valued in pathways, drainage systems, and as a base for paving. They are a vital naturally occurring material with a wide range of practical applications.
