GANGSAW SUITABILITY
China Blue Limestone raw blocks are fully compatible with standard gangsaw processing equipment for mass tile cutting. Standard quarry block dimensions fully adapt to conventional tile specification cutting. The stone features stable internal sedimentary structure and uniform density; sedimentary line distribution and natural tone difference bring gentle natural variation among individual tiles, generating low controllable processing loss and stable finished‑product yield. It is a well‑received deep‑toned domestic limestone material for high‑end interior design and large‑scale architectural engineering projects.
Recommended Processing: Gangsaw slabs (1.8 cm & 2 cm), followed by calibration, precise tile cutting, edge trimming and honed / polished / brushed / flamed surface treatment
Expected Slab Yield: Approximately 76‑86 slabs per block (based on 1.8 cm thickness)
Polish Result: Uniform deep blue‑grey low‑gloss smooth surface with faint grey‑toned layered sedimentary lines and sparse tiny fossil specks, presenting solid cool‑toned layering, solemn charcoal‑blue tone and exclusive oriental minimalist luxury decorative appearance
