Our quarry in Galway is in the geological area known as the 'Connemara marble formation'. This open face quarry is situated in a valley surrounded by hills. The marble is sawn into manageable size blocks with diamond wire and removed with a Derrick crane. Because of its metamorphic geological history we employ special extraction techniques. Quarrying Connemarble is one of the most enjoyable jobs in the stone business. It is a primeval occupation, and because of the highly variegated colour of the marble it is a constant pleasure to witness the different colours as they are extracted. Nothing beats the sparkle of translucent green marble in the quarry on a rainy day.
