Are Gravestones Expensive?

Why are marble Gravestones so expensive? What determines the price?

Marble Gravestones material from underground quality rock layer, after ten thousand years of natural aging, the form is very stable, do not worry about time, temperature difference and change, natural texture witnessed the earth flows through the years, marble whether from architecture, research or aesthetics, have a high value. So why is the marble on the market so expensive? What determines the price? HIBO stone from the marble mining difficulty and scarcity to analyze:

Mining difficulty: worldwide mining marble mines use diamond rope saw mining stone, and can not use the way of blasting, because the blasting vibration will damage the integrity of marble.

Mining process: when the discovery of marble mine, complete the corresponding mining procedures, formally mining marble stone, generally after three big "steps: preparation, preparation before mining, marble cutting.

1 Preparation work.

(1) Mountain stripping: a simple understanding is to clean up the debris covering the surface of stone ore body to facilitate the construction of a working platform; (2) Structure of work platform: after exposed marble, to dig out a suitable rope saw working platform, the general competitive degree is 6 meters, the length is determined according to the mountain, the height of the quarry steps is 5-10 meters. 

2. Preparation before mining.

(1) drilling diamond rope saw used in marble mining, so it is necessary to drill three holes, namely a vertical hole and two horizontal holes, technical requirements of the three holes intersect at a point. (2) Rope threading is to saw the diamond rope through the drilled hole.
