Onyx Stone: A beautiful natural stone for your home
Onyx marble types, uses and prices
Onyx marble stone, a member of the chalcedony family, is included in the semi-precious stone group. The formation process occurs in cold water sources where calcium carbonate is more concentrated than other precious marble types. The formation is completed due to the slower precipitation of waters containing more concentrated mineral salts in terms of content. The slow dissolution process enables onyx marble to take on a more crystalline, transparent, and dense structure.
A transparent and crystalline structure takes it to a different point than other marble types. This situation is effective in the ability of onyx marble to transmit light. Other natural stones allow their light transmission feature to be included in the semi-precious stone group. This feature is the most important factor for onyx stone to have usage areas other than marble. Apart from building materials, there is a great interest in this product in the decoration, ornaments, and jewelry sector.
