Limestone can be used as a building material, and as hardcore in the construction and road making industries.

Can granite turn into slate?
No, granite typically does not turn into slate. Slate is formed from the metamorphism of fine-grained sedimentary rocks such as shale or mudstone, while granite is an igneous rock that forms from the cooling and solidification of magma. The processes involved in their formation are different, so granite does not typically transform into slate.
