Cretaceous Sandstones in Moravia and Silesia and their Application as Building and Ornamental Stones
Original language description
Sandstone is the rock type most widely used for building and ornamental purposes in the Moravian and Silesian regions. Many types of Cretaceous sandstone have been used for construction throughout history, most of which come from numerous small quarriesalong the south-eastern margin of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin and the Outer Carpathian nappes (Silesian Unit). However, production currently continues only at the Řeka locality (Outer Carpathians). The Bohemian Cretaceous sandstones that have been surveyed are quartzose with high proportions of SiO2 and low alkalies. The Outer Carpathian sandstones are glauconitic, with local calcareous cement, and higher proportions of Al2O3 and alkalies. The Bohemian Cretaceous sandstones are the more mature of thetwo. Furthermore, the physical properties of the sandstones from these two regions differ significantly, with those of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin showing lower bulk density, compressive strength and frost resistance, and higher porosit
