For the purposes of ordering the ltp Mattstone sealant would these tiles come under Higher porosity or lower porosity?
These tiles are natural stone and haven't been pre-treated so are classed a high porosity. In our experience, these tiles will require 2 coats of sealer before grouting, but we also recommend a further coat of sealer after grouting, to seal the grout an ensure the tiles are fully protected.

Most slate products are naturally heat resistant and these are no exception so will be fine for a hearth or burner surround. We would recommend fixing with the Palace Heat Resist adhesive, sealing with the LTP Colour Intensifier before grouting with the Norcros 4 Into 1 Grout:

Yes, Natural slate can be used externally, however they need to be thoroughly sealed to prevent moisture and frost damage. Either the LTP Mattstone or the LTP Colour intensifier would both be suitable sealers and we'd recommend saturating the tile before grouting and a further coat once grouting is completed.

7-12mm is correct. These are a non-calibrated slate, but have been trimmed on the underside to give a flatter base for fixing. But being a layered stone and due to the Natural Riven finish, thicknesses can vary. We'd therefore recommend loose laying and gauging the tiles before fixing so as to minimise the variations between the tiles.
