Morocco · Marble
also known as Blue Anoceur, Bleu d'Anoceur, Marble d'Anoceur, Anoceur Blue Marble
One of Morocco's most distinctive and sought-after stones: a blue-grey crystalline marble from the Anoceur area near Taza in the Middle Atlas. The stone's unusual colouration — ranging from steel blue to warm grey-blue with subtle silver reflections on polished faces — makes it unique in the global natural stone palette. Quarried in limited volumes, it is positioned as a luxury material for high-end residential projects, statement floors and bespoke architectural details.
Type-level physical facts shown. Per-lot lab values (absorption, flexural strength) confirmed at quotation.
The blue-grey tone comes from the specific mineral composition of the metamorphic limestone — fine-grained calcite with iron and graphite inclusions that scatter light in the blue-grey spectrum. It is not a dye or treatment: the colour is entirely natural.
No — it is quarried in limited quantities from a single zone in the Taza province. This makes it a semi-rare material with a premium positioning. Lead times and availability should always be confirmed with Moroccan quarry contacts.
