Jurassic Green is a fascinating, primordial, and exotic natural green-dominant silicate stone mined from Brazil’s renowned deposits (with selected variants in African mining basins). Appreciated in luxury architecture and international interior design for its imposing organic texture that evokes prehistoric landscapes and mineralized fossil structures, it represents a silicate ornamental stone of the highest aesthetic value and extraordinary durability.
Visually, it is distinguished by a deep and enveloping background matrix in shades of olive green, pine green and moss green, enriched by a dense and dramatic movement of flamings, nodules and veins in shades of anthracite grey, obsidian black, quartz white, ochre and amber touches.
Geologically it is a silicate metamorphic/magmatic rock (commercially classified as quartzite or silicate granite rich in quartz, feldspars and chloritic/epidote micas, responsible for the green hues). As a strictly silicate matrix material with no carbonate components, it does not react to food or household acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, juices or common detergents) and is not subject to acid attack opacification. It has a very high hardness (Mohs scale 6–7), exceptional resistance to abrasion, scratches, intense trampling, inglivity and thermal changes, combined with a very low liquid absorption rate. To best protect crystalline micro-porosities from oily or pigmenting substances, the usual hydro-oleorepellent protective sealing is recommended.
– scenic kitchen tops and countertops: an excellent choice for impact islands, kitchen tops, and bar counters thanks to their complete immunity to food acids, heat, and accidental scratches.
– bookmatch compositions: the intense nodular and veined movement lends itself magnificently to the mirrored pose for the creation of designer wall wings and high plastic value.
– vertical siding and accent walls: perfect for natural stone wood paneling, executive lobbies, hotel suites, shower walls and prestigious entrances.
– bathroom and SPA rooms: widely used for washbasins, wall coverings and wellness areas, giving a serene, natural and aristocratic atmosphere.
– floors and facades: suitable for high-traffic floors and external architectural elements thanks to its total atmospheric unalterability.
