Navajo Granite Pea Gravel Quarried from the smallLa Panza Gold Districtgold mining district in the mountains of Central California. The miners named the diggings the Navajo Pit, thus the name sticks to this day. I have not found any connection between the name of the diggings and the native American Navajo tribe of Arizona.
This gravel is one of California's best gravel materials. It is a beautiful blend of salt n pepper, white granite, grey, blue and brown crushed stone. It is sold in 3/8"and 3/4" screened sizes. This gravel is excellent for driveway and utility areas. This granite gravel is a mixture of interesting colors.
This is not the same asNavajo Gold Gravel which is tan - gold colored material. It is mostly used on premium residential properties San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties. The use of decorative rock as a landscape ground cover or rock mulch to save water needs to be attractive to be effective. We believe that in most residential landscape and garden installation circumstances this is best done with 3/4" screened rock.
