Marble

Turkish Coffee Gold Marble is derived from querries in Corum Calica region of Central Anatolia. It mostly consists of calcite, pieces of ultrabasic rocks that include rare amounts of green-like and yellow-like colored edged limestone, and a large amount of red-brown-claret red pieces. Those are broken into pieces through the tectonic effects and then integrated and cemented again strongly. The grain size of the breccied texture varies from small to big. The ingedients are cemented with calcite and iron oxide.
Mainly used in indoor and outdoor decoration and plating, it can be supplied either in blocks or plates in any sizes required. It has very high qualities for polishing and trimming.
