Question:

What are the three Sedimentary AND Metamorphic rocks used?

for decorative landscape or building materials .Kinda need help on this one. thank you

Answer:

sedimentary: sandstone conglomerate limestone metamorphic quartzite marble gneiss
The most extensively used building stone that is sedimentary is limestone. In addition, dolomite and sandstone are also used in buildings. For metamorphic rocks, marble is the most often used decorative stone and is also used in facades on buildings because of the attractive colors and patterns. Serpentine is also used as decorative landscape rock and slates and phyllites are often used in landscaping, espically as flagstones.
