FEATURES OF VOLGA CRISTAL GRANITE (NEW VOLGA BLUE GRANITE)
- Pure black background color, intense crystal-blue iridescence. Most stone consumers customarily assume that all Ukrainian labradorites come under one brand of Volga Blue granite, mistakenly considering that all of them originate from the same quarry. In reality though, they include diversity of many materials coming from quarries located miles apart. Each quarry delivers a uniquely colored material. 80% of all extracted stone comes with greenish background color and green-and-yellow iridescence. Volga Cristal granite has the deepest black background among all Ukrainian labradorites, with largest grain in its structure. The iridescence of the stone is very intense (up to 30% of all the stone surface) and features elegant, moderate crystal-blue shade.
- Minimum of micro-cracks. Vast majority of Ukrainian labradorite quarries had been developed during Soviet Union times, when stone mining was mainly performed by blasting method. Due to this reason, the rock massif that carries labradorite blocks up till nowadays is full of open cracks and hair-cracks. Volga Cristal quarry was developed from scratch in 2014 using modern technology and Italian equipment, avoiding applying explosives. Due to this reason, the problem of cracks is minimized in this material. .
- Absence of corrosion. Many Ukrainian labradorites, including classic Volga Blue, contain large amounts of iron. This causes the phenomenon of corrosive spots appearing on the surface of tiles, especially when used outdoors. In Volga Cristal, the content of iron is minimal, thus there is no problem of rust spots in it.
- Ideal stone for manufacturing of memorial products. Intense black background color, moderate iridescence and absence of rust makes this material a perfect option for production of monuments and extended memorial complexes.
