Today it is exported primarily to Middle Eastern and Central Asian markets but is increasingly available via European stone distributors. A reliable, consistent white marble with good block yield from established quarries.
Type-level physical facts shown. Per-lot lab values (absorption, flexural strength) confirmed at quotation.
In colour and general appearance it is similar: white to pale grey with subtle veining. However it lacks the refined tonal variation of top-grade Carrara. It is a cost-effective white marble for large-scale projects where a consistent neutral white is required.
