Pirgon Marble Range & Water
The interaction of water with the quarry has been a decisive factor for the nomenclature chosen for the Pirgon marble types.
Water is indispensable to the creation of marble deposits, as well as in the process of marble cutting and forming (a key external geological factor that shapes rocks).
It is a dominant element at the quarrying site and contributes to the humidity rate and the vapor produced during cutting.
It is also a key component of clouds whose patterns and colors resemble some types of marble.
Marble joins a natural element so necessary for its formation, and is associated with all forms (liquid, solid and gaseous) and all architectural aspects of water.
