STONEBUILT IRELAND and Geological Survey Ireland provided data on 50 Irish stone types for the European Ornamental Stone Resources (EuroLithos) database.
“EuroLithos is founded on the idea that increased knowledge of the geology, quality and history of use of natural stone in Europe will stimulate both more sustainable use of stone resources in Europe for the benefit of SMEs and our cultural heritage, and a sound land use management for the safeguarding of ornamental stone deposits.”
