Persian crystal stone types in Iran are to be introduced here. If you are a crystal fan, stay with us.
Crystal stone, like marble, is composed of calcite, except that, depending on the degree of metamorphism, the size of the crystals is sometimes larger than usual, visible to the eye crystal stone. Like marble, crystal is a type of metamorphic stone. Crystal stones may be composed of quartz, in which case the hardness of the stone increases.
The reason for choosing this stone is the sound of breaking similar to crystal stone, which is created in a thickness of less than 2 cm. Crystal stone is sometimes formed with the mineral wollastonite.
Components of Crystal
Crystal or Marble stone is composed mainly of two minerals, wollastonite and calcite. We have talked about calcite a lot in previous texts. But Wollastonite is a calcium inosilicate mineral (CaSiO3) that may contain small amounts of iron, magnesium, and manganese substituting for calcium. It is usually white.
It forms when impure limestone or dolomite is subjected to high temperature and pressure, which sometimes occurs in the presence of silica-bearing fluids as in skarns or in contact with metamorphic rocks. Associated minerals include garnets, vesuvianite, diopside, tremolite, epidote, plagioclase feldspar, pyroxene and calcite.
It is named after the English chemist and mineralogist William Hyde Wollaston who lived in eighteenth century.
Crystal High Resistance
Crystal stones have a high resistance and due to the absorption of very little water, they can be used in almost all parts of the building from the facade to the floor of toilets.
Color Variation of Crystal
Crystal stones, unlike marble stones, have very little color variation and are often colored. Bright white spots are seen, which may be accompanied by yellow or red streaks. The white color of crystal stones in tropical areas causes low heat absorption and high light reflection, but in other areas, especially urban areas, due to the low variety of colors, their use in interior and exterior decoration of the building has decreased.
Crystal Stone Quarrying in Iran
Crystal Stone coming from Iran is actually the marble stone that has been recrystallized due to the thermal pressure caused by the injection of high-temperature magma during long periods of time, and its gradation is crystalline, which is visible with the eye. In the case of the coarseness of this aggregate, this building stone is called a crystal.
Iran crystal is totally known in the world. Some of these types such as Azna are known as the most luxurious types of crystal stones in the world.

Persian Crystal
Formerly the crystal stone as a building stone was greatly used as a main construction material in Iran later replaced by the travertine, marble and granite tiles and slabs due to lack of variety of stone. Recently, with the changing taste of customers, the use of this stone has a significant boom and is used in almost all spaces.
Crystal stone applications include the facade of the building, the staircase and the staircase, the floor of the interior spaces such as the lobby, the reception desk, the bathroom, toilets, the table and the cabinet. The price of Persian Crystals is a mid-range Iranian stone and is considered as a mid-class construction material.
