Quartzites
Fusion
The origin of this quartzite reveals the intersection of distinct geological environments that are related to the evolution of Bahia lands. 1.8 billion years ago, quartz grains and composition were carried by the action of wind and lakes into the basin, forming sandstone deposits. After strong magmatic activity, these elements went through metamorphism, generating core minerals in blue, red and black shades. Its folded layers record the outcome of a geological event of great magnitude marked in Fusion, a vibrant and exotic stone.

Petrographic Analysis
It consists of classifying the rock through the macroscopic and microscopic description of its characteristics, such as minerological composition, alteration, deformation and microcracking pattern.
Apparently density
Relationship between the mass and apparent volume of the rock. It provides the weight of the rock, being an important parameter for calculating loads in buildings.
Apparent porosity
It is the relationship between the volume of voids and the total volume of the rock expressed as a percentage.
Water absorption
It is the ability to assimilate or incorporate water into the rock, expressed as a percentage.
Abrasion resistance
Determines the wear rate due to friction of particles with the surface of a rock plate.
Bending resistance
Simulates flexural efforts in rock pacas, with predetermined thickness, in this case simulating the effect of wind on plates fixed to facades with metal anchors.
Compressive strength
.
Stain resistance
Stress that causes rock to rupture when subjected to compressive stress.
