FORMATION OF STONES
Like all rocks on earth, natural stones were formed some thousand years ago. This is a naturally occurring rock. These stones are formed in the form of layers like a carpet, laid on one over another beneath the earth. The thickness of each layer varies from layer to layer and each layer has a specified thickness such as 10-50 mm depending upon the layers.
- Natural Stones, particularly igneous products (formed from volcanic eruptions – Granite & Basalt), inherently have vesiculations, veining and crazing (lines) that may appear on the surface of the stone. These characteristics are normal and are considered part of the Often these characteristics are only visible during the drying process
i.e. when there is moisture in the stone. Providing these natural characteristics do not affect the structural integrity of the stone, the product should be laid and the natural variations form part of the natural beauty of the stone.
TEXTURE OF THE SURFACE
