As the name implies, this is a coarse combination of washed river sand and 10mm Blue Metal. ‘Blue Metal’ is crushed basalt, screened to a variety of sizes. When combined with cement, sand and metal mix makes for sturdy, solid uses, like concreting post holes, or as a builder’s mix used in retaining wall construction, foundations, driveways and general concreting. With this as a concrete mix the finer river sand fills the gaps between the blue metal pieces and the cement fills the gaps in the sand, making for a solid combination.
