The World Outside
Well, let me tell you, the Rock family doesn't spend all of it's time in the neighborhood rock cycle. We do venture away from the family home. Here are some of the ways our family members work for man in the outside world. |
Marble is used by man to decorate buildings. It is used to tile floors and bathrooms. It may even be used as countertops. It is also what sculptors use to create beautiful statues. | ||
Slate is easy to split along flat planes, so it is often used to make floors, terraces, or garden steps. |
