Aggregate
Crushed stone, gravel, sand, or other granular material used in making concrete, mortar and plaster. Coarse aggregate can be used to face pre-cast concrete panels, the product being known as 'exposed aggregate' panels. In some styles of pointing the surface of the mortar is brushed off to reveal the grains of aggregate on the surface.
