Ok it looks to me like a mix of Chinese lilac, black and rustic grey (the greys are normaly browns on the flip side). Treat it like any other slate the black and lilac are harder than the grey/brown which can sometimes be more of a shale and a little softer. The browns and greys will need washing and will prob be thicker than the other 2 colours.

I am going off a topps photo so hope I am correct m8

i fixed some before christmas i sealed after fixing, they were a modular pattern and had to fix by eye as the sizes were out for spacers also quite a few broke in my hand just off picking them up , the larger ones vary in thickness from about 5mm to 30 mm

One thing you will need to watch is for breakages, laid a floor end of last year and when we unpacked boxes there were lots of broken tiles when spoke to Topps they were saying to just butt them together as this was style. LOL think not got them to replace broken ones they were really soft for slate though hopefuly they have got better batch in now. But as was said they vary in thickness a lot. I laid using Dunlop Large Format.
