A variety of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks are used as structural and decorative dimension stone. These rock types are more commonly known as granite, limestone, marble, travertine, quartz-based stone (sandstone, quartzite) and slate. Other varieties of dimension stone that are normally considered to be special minor types include aaster (massive gypsum), soapstone (massive talc), serpentine and various products fashioned from natural stone.

This same process is done to make thin stone veneers ers, which allows them to look like full bed depth dimensional stone on the edge of walls. This produces veneers with nominal thicknesses of 1.25 to 1.5 inches at an average weight of 12 to 15 lbs./sq.ft. (depending on the density of the stone selection), compared to full veneer, which is typically 3 to 5 inches thick with an average

Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed mostly of the mineral calcite and comprising about 15% of the Earth''s sedimentary crust. It is a basic building block of the construction industry (dimension stone) and a chief material from which aggregate, cement, lime and building stone are made. 71% of all crushed stone produced in the U.S. is

Limestone is a carbonate sedimentary rock that is often composed of the skeletal fragments of marine organisms such as coral, foraminifera, and molluscs.Its major materials are the minerals calcite and aragonite, which are different crystal forms of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3).A closely related rock is dolomite, which contains a high percentage of the mineral dolomite, CaMg(CO 3) 2.
Currently the company owns more than nine quarries ,which covers a total area of 124 hectars,from which five of them are producing Granite ,and the remaining Marble and Limestone.All the quarry sites are located in Tigray.
