The stone is wet, so not polished, and is just one color.

I bet is more than one colour when you clean it!

I still can't zoom in to be sure but there looks to be some fossils in one piece on the left hand side which would indicate it is limestone however, it could also be a trick of the light.  You could conduct a simple acid test to check to be sure.  Or e mail me a j.peg to kevin@tilinglogistics.co.uk and I will have a closer look if I can for you.

If you don't care what it is why ask?  It now definately looks like sandstone but the piece on the left with a crack in it looks like limestone!  Your blown up picture has identified a lot of grout haze and excess grout in the pits and fissures especially towards the front leading edge. I would take care to point it out to the customer beforehand as when you clean it they will see it as clear as dat because of the colour of the grout.  I personally would clean it with a Mono Rotary coupled with a Medium Brush and an acidic cleaner subject to a test area first.

Guys gonna try and improve my knowledge here to prevent from making a mistake in the future even if this post makes me look silly. Can you not just (if you think it needs it) mix up your SH and fsc it and away you go. Or because it's sandstone or limestone will SH do damage to this type of surface?

I don't have a problem cleaning it, I just don't know the official name of it.      I remember someone posting a similar " what have you cleaned today " picture, and someone gave the answer, but I can't remember cos I is thick !

Silly but if you only want to know what it is have you asked the customer?

It's sawn Indian  sandstone…
The "common"  Indian sandstone is hacked out of larger pieces by children working in the quarries.
