Strombergwhite
Granite
Structure: The STROMBERGWHITE ranks among the brightest granites [lat. granum = grain] in Europe. Up to 1 cm large, in the core also easily ivory-colored, orthoclase alternate also purely white plagioclase. That quartz appears colorless to transparency or light-grey. Black biotite (dark mica) is predominantly evenly in the rock distributed.
Characteristics: In the MOHS hardness scale (1 = chalk, 10 = diamond) the STROMBERGWHITE possesses a degree of hardness from 6 to 7. It counts to the hard rocks, is resistant to scratching and friction, polish-steadily and not scratchable with a knife.
Emergence: The STROMBERGWHITE developed from a bright, feldspar and quartz-rich magma, which crystallized in the lower earth's crust slowly. By the long and even cooling over millions of years the uniform grain structure typical for the STROMBERGWHITE developed.

Age: 325 million years (carbon).
Use: The STROMBERGWHITE is to be used as hard rock in the interior and external architecture, main as floor mats, stairs, fronts, bars, washstands, kitchen sill plates, etc.
