Quartzite
Quartzite is a natural metamorphic rock that forms from sandstone under intense heat and pressure. Quartzite is one of the hardest natural stones available, scoring around 7 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, which measures the scratch resistance of minerals.
Natural Stones
Marble is widely used in the Middle East for its elegance and beauty. Natural stones are commonly used for flooring in both residential and commercial buildings. West Asian building stones are known for their durability, allowing them to withstand harsh weather conditions and long-term use. West Asia is home to various types of marble, each with its own unique characteristics. Travertine is formed over thousands of years as water flows through limestone and carries dissolved minerals to the surface.
Quartzite trade in Somalia
Somalia’s economy is largely based on agriculture, livestock, remittances, and a growing informal sector. Despite the challenges posed by decades of political instability, civil war, and limited infrastructure, Somalia has maintained a degree of resilience through informal trade networks and the support of its diaspora. Livestock, particularly cattle, sheep, and camels, forms the backbone of the economy, with the country being a major supplier of animals to the Middle East. Agriculture, especially the cultivation of bananas, sugarcane, and sorghum, is also a key sector, though it has faced challenges due to recurring droughts and lack of modern farming techniques.
