    Brasilian slate

    ME n.73, December/January 2006


    In Brazil the extraction and processing of natural slate have been for some years steadily improving in quality and quantity. This country exports semi-finished products, in particular raw and machined slabs, in view of further development aiming at commercialization of finished products and services on the international market. The Brazilian slate combines the charm of natural stone to interesting technical features and can be used in wide variety of interior and exterior spaces.
