"Desert Break" presents itself with a hilly structure, as well as a special coloring with a subtle red tint. The natural stone processed in the STEINBILD "Desert Break" was formed about 350 million years ago, when the Variscan mountain building took place due to the collision of two continents.
History of origins
Each STEINBILD tells the probably oldest story in the world - our earth history
At the time of the formation of the natural stone of this STEINBILD, a Variscan mountain building (collision of two continents) took place. This started the unfolding of the Rhenish slate mountains Harz and Eifel.
Mineralogy
At the end of the age, lush forests arose with the first ancestors of the coniferous trees and the first seed plants. The primitive ferns (vascular plants) were already widespread. They were able to develop and spread quickly because there were no large herbivores at that time. At the same time, the ammonites were developing well.
