Information, news, composition, properties and physical analyses of Iranian stone.
Understand the area to choose the material.
The quarries of Mahallat: Atashkooh, Darreh Bokhari, Abbasabad and Hajiabad. Explore each quarry and its travertine.
Area: Markazi.
Research on samples from the Mahallat area examines deterioration caused by salt crystallization, among other subjects. This matters when assessing stone for exposed environments.
