Rundle Rock Building Stone-Kamenka Quarry, Harvie Heights, AB

Rundle Rock Building Stone is a quarrier and distributor of Rundle Rock: a fine grained sandstone/siltstone exclusive to the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Canada. Rundle Rock is a physically hard, chemically inert building, landscaping and feature stone, available in earthy brown tones, charcoal-black and gray-blue colors. First quarried on Mt. Rundle in Banff National Park, this rare, indigenous stone is found only in the front ranges of Alberta's Rocky Mountains and nowhere else in the world! Harvested from Rundle Rock Quarry near Canmore, Alberta, Rundle Rock Building Stone is one of only two Rundlestone quarries that exist today. This second-generation, family-owned business has been in operation for close to 60 years. All stones are hand-sorted, split, shaped and palatalized to maintain consistent quality in style, size and colour. President/Owner Louis Kamenka, holds a M.Sc. in geology from the University of Alberta and is a Board Member of the Building Stone Institute.
