Castione Scuro ,Castione Chiaro ,Castione Grigio Marble Block

The quarries are located near Castione Galletto, on a parcel of land that the town planning scheme defines "Zona cave". The marble Castione (calcefiro) extracted from two quarries comes in three varieties: Castione chiaro, Castione grigio and Castione scuro. These three materials, used not only in construction but also in works of art. The extraction of material over the years has continued at different rates, but has never been interrupted. If in the 80 production hovered around 1000 m3 per year today mining is less adapted to the needs of the market. Do not forget that the "marble" Castione is indispensable in the work of restoration.
