Crimson Quarzite, Red Quarzite, Shoksha
Crimson quartzite Shoksha, a rarest decorative natural stone, is mined in the only one place on the planet: in the quarry on the west shore of Onega Lake, near village called Shoksha.
A lot of historical things and buildings made of it: Napoleon Tomb in Paris, Lenin Mausoleum and Unknown Soldier Grave in Moscow and many other... Shoksha is very exclusive material which is very rare due to small stone reserve in the quarry.
