In the modern world, much like Basalt, we use Andesite for many construction purposes, including aggregated gravel for roadbeds. We also see Andesite used in famous statues and monuments around the world. Many artifacts found in ancient temples and monuments, including the famous 'Head of Buddha' found in the Indonesian Mountains, are made from Andesite. This rock also has a resistance against slipping, which makes it an excellent choice for floor tiling work.
