O
ur Marmara White
marble has superior quality, with the most light color and the least black lines.
We are mostly exporting our Marmara White marble to Romania, Syria and the UAE.
I
n general, we offer
the Marmara White Marble in blocks. Upon request we may also offer as slabs and
tiles, or finished products (thumbstones).
Characteristics
P
aleosoic aged marbles
have marble and dolomitic lithologies. Marbles, being alternated with schists are
cut by a gnelssified granite. These marbles are observed as white dolomites and
light gray – white marbles containing gray bands and stains. Dolomites are found
as lenses in the marble body. This marble consists of calcite minerals of unit sizes
0,25 – 0,85mm.
