French Dolomite chippings, also known as Markies or Marquise, are a hard dolomitized limestone with a beige, brown, and grey coloration. They are widely used for decorative purposes such as garden paths, driveways, and patios, as well as in asphalt and the concrete industry. Compared to Belgian dolomite, French Dolomite chippings are more colorfast and durable.

Dolomite chippings
Dolomite is a fairly well-known type of stone, which is also known under various other names such as Dololux, Gralux Gravier d'Or and Yorkshire chippings. The stone has a beautiful beige colour and a unique, binding effect, as a result of which Dolomite is usually used in semi-paved areas in fine sizes of 0/5 mm and 0/15 mm. In addition, the chippings are used ornamentally in the size 5/15 on driveways, ornamental paths etc.
Properties
Type of stone: Dolomite
Hardness: High
Colour: beige
Specific gravity: ± 1500 kg per m3 (5/15) / ± 1800 kg per m3 (0/5 and 0/15).
Shape: Angular (broken)
Special features: Binding effect when used in fine sizes because of the high levels of CaCO3. Please note: Some types of yellow limestone are similar in appearance to Dolomite, but do not bind as well. You can easily test whether something is limestone or not by filling a glass with vinegar and adding some 0/5 or 0/8 stones. If it reacts, it is limestone and not Dolomite!
