CREMA PINAR ® limestone

It is classified as a non-recrystallised calcareous dolomite with a saccharoid texture and a beige colouring with occasional orange veining.
It comes from the basal layers of the Cretaceous period (Maastrichtian).
The material is obtained from a quarry in southern Burgos, where the slight gradient of the layers facilitates its mining.
The Crema Pinar limestone has been used since the very early days of construction. The most important structure built with this type of sandstone is the monastery of Santo Domingo de Silos.

DORADA de los PINARES ® sandstone
www.areniscas.com
Red-cream sandstone with brown-wooden veining with varying intensity as a function of the iron content in the rock.
Its grain is medium-thick and its composition is mainly quartzitic with minimum amounts of micas (muscovite and biotite) and opaque minerals. This rock is easily cut and is very beautiful. A series of sediment levels from the early cretaceous period from the Pinares region (Burgos) can be found. In the company workshop, the blocks are cut into different sizes with a wide range of surface finishes such as sawn cut, bushhammered, pitch-faced, etc.
