Marinace Verde is one of the most extraordinary, iconic and recognizable natural conglomerates and exotic granites in the world, mined mainly in the renowned deposits of the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil (with well-known selections also excavated in South Africa). Famous for its distinctive mosaic aesthetic reminiscent of a petrified fossil riverbed, it represents a silicate ornamental stone of inestimable scenographic value and mechanical stability.
Visually, it is distinguished by an intense background matrix in shades of olive green, pine green, jade and forest green, cemented and enriched by an incredible multitude of blunt polymictic pebbles (water-smoothed clasts) in shades of quartz grey, cream white, antique pink, obsidian black, purple and ochre.
Geologically it is classified as a metaconglomerate / silicate diamictite of glacial or fluvial origin. Since it is a strictly silicate matrix material (composed of quartz, feldspars, micas and chlorite/epidote mineral responsible for greenery) that incorporates predominantly silicate pebbles, it does not react with 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, frost (total unhappiness) and thermal changes, with an extremely low water absorption rate.
– scenic kitchen tops and countertops: an excellent choice for impact islands, kitchen tops, and bar counters thanks to its absolute resistance to food acids, direct heat, and accidental scratches.
– vertical cladding and accent walls: perfect for creating scenic wall wings, natural stone wood paneling, executive lobbies, hotel suites and prestigious entrances.
– bathroom and SPA rooms: widely used for designer vanity tops, wall coverings, shower trays and wellness areas, where the fluid texture recalls the aquatic element.
– flooring and facades: used for high-traffic internal and external flooring and external architectural elements thanks to its total atmospheric unalterability and frostiness.
