Jerusalem Bone Limestone

Jerusalem Bone Limestone provides excellent weather resistance. This is ideal for use in architectural and design projects. This limestone is extracted in the area surrounding Jerusalem City, Israel. This area boasts a rich culture of stone carving and architecture. The stone acquires a set of properties that give it a high level of resistance to weather conditions. This stone is also called Jerusalem White Limestone because of its color and fossil-like veining.

Due to its dense and compact structure, Jerusalem Bone Limestone is not easily affected by or allows the intrusion of moisture. It is one of the key characteristics that define weather resistance. This density makes the stone less porous in comparison to other types of limestone. It reduces its capacity to absorb water by half.

-Jerusalem Bone Limestone Advantages-

  • Jerusalem Bone Limestone is one of the most durable natural stones because it does not erode easily. This is important especially where the stone is exposed to wind, rain and other factors that can erode other types of stones. Limestone is mainly composed of some minerals such as calcite. This is one of the reasons why the rock is hard and strong.

 

  • As the stone absorbs moisture, it is less prone to freeze-thaw. It is common in colder regions where water absorbed freezes expands causing cracking of the face of the stone or spalling. This low porosity also aids in reducing the formation of moss, algae and other growths which occur within damp conditions. Thus, making sure the stone remains visually appealing for a long period of time.

 

  • Another interesting property of the stone is that it can sustain high temperatures. Jerusalem Bone Limestone exhibits good thermal stability. Due to its stable structure, it does not deteriorate under high or low temperatures. This characteristic makes the material ideal for use in regions with high temperatures.

 

  • The original composite of Jerusalem Bone Limestone is made up of natural elements. It prevents cases of weathering. These minerals assist to create a covering to the exterior part of the stone. It not only provides a better appearance but also adds an added layer of shield against natural conditions.

 

  • The mineral composition of this stone is comparatively more uniform and it is less sensitive to acidic materials. This resistance is especially helpful in urban areas where acid rain and pollution contribute to the deterioration of structures. You can be confident that your property will be more durable and aesthetically appealing for longer durations. This is better to place especially in polluted environments.
