Glass aggregate colors are designated
by an alphabetic prefix and a number following the color name.
The prefix refers to formulation . The numbers ranging from
1 to 9 indicate color intensity. The higher the number the darker
the color. The prefix and numbers accompanying the color name
are useful in specifying the precise color quality. It should
be noted that because glass, is transparent color saturation
decreases with size of aggregate.
