About Fossil Marble

Fossil Marble is quarried from the ancient seabeds of the prehistoric Paleo-Tethys and Tethys seas, now known as the Sahara desert. It is characterized by the distinctive, visible and completely naturally occurring presence of fossilized prehistoric marine life forms, known as orthoceras and ammonites, throughout the stone. Within each color, the figures of orthoceras appear as rocket or spaceship- or spear-like elongated cylindrical shapes. Ammonites can be identified by their circular nautilus-shaped spiral-esque forms. Physical and mechanical properties of fossil marble make it a premium selection for commercial or residential interior and exterior design, building, remodeling and renovation projects where an unforgettable visual effect is desired.
