Where do you live? Do a Web search for "slate quarries". Be
warned there aren't many in the U.S.; more in the UK.

Maybe you can find what you want at a store that sells
construction materials, etc. like Bourget Brothers in Santa Monica.

Good luck.

there's no telling what's around your location.

Maybe a roofer will have some scrap lying around?

Any local landscape place that sells trees, stone, flagstone, mulch, etc.
They usually have pieces as well as pallets.
