dc.description.abstract | Although rock types do not vary, rock material varies with the environment of deposition and the subsequent mineralogical and tectonic history. Departing from this environment encourages natural weathering processes. Dimension stones extracted from the Globigerina formation weather more rapidly if used, say, in the British Isles. The main naturally occurring forms of weathering are physical and chemical. A discussion of the causes and remedies related to weathering and deterioration of Lower Globigerina Limestone can be found in a paper read by architectural consultant Mr Michael Ellul, then Head of the antiquities section at the Ministry of Public Works, in a symposium held in Athens. | en_GB |
