Dolomite Marbles

Biancatto

In Bahia, around 944 million years ago, a marine spectacle was unfolding. Carpets of seaweeds and coral reefs were sources of calcium carbonate that poured out in extensive limestone packages. Under pressure and temperature, Biancatto Marble was created, an eternal stone with crystallized dolomites in every layer, which delivers a classic symphony reflected in its soft shades of white and gray shades.

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

It simulates bending stresses in rock slabs with a predetermined thickness, in this case simulating the effect of wind on slabs fixed to façades with metal anchors.
