Mikrokosmos Naturstein

Photomicrographs and descriptions of selected natural stones

A view through a microscope ....

In rock determining the microscope for the Professional is a useful tool.

During our many years working for "Big Stones Worldwide" we have among other things, a variety of micro photos with up to 40-times magnification made.

In addition to thousands of "normal" photos were in this work to some, some spectacular specimens, which you can designate particular aesthetic point of view as outstanding.

All these photos are displayed in the "Big Stones Worldwide"

Often we were approached in recent years on these pictures, not only of experts, but especially from interested laymen.

We have therefore decided to make the most beautiful and expressive of these images to a wider circle accessible.

To better understand the Geologist Karl Jochen stone, with which we cooperate on the provision rock for years, each figure has attached a short explanatory text.

An explanation of the technical language expressions, see the "Glossary of terms", also in this app.

Take pleasure in the most beautiful of our micro-photos from the world of natural stones.

Incidentally, it is not unlikely that your flooring, your windowsill or tabletop contains similar amazing colors, shapes and structures.
