Diorite is a valuable facing and building material. In Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, diorite was used as a sculptural material. It was also common in Ancient Greece, where diorite statues have survived to this day. Despite its hardness, diorite is easily polished, and all products made from it have a high degree of strength. This material is excellent for use in construction as it is very hard to damage.

It withstands shock loads well. Besides, it is worth noting the resistance of diorite to environmental exposure. Diorite has a springing effect that allows it not to split into pieces. The compression force reaches two hundred and eighty megapascals.

The feldspar content of diorite gives it a gray-green cast, which increases its quality. At the same time, it looks like granite, which makes it unique and beautiful. Diorite is also a valuable building material. If it is crushed, you can get concrete with very high quality properties. Due to its physical and mechanical properties, this rock can be used for the construction of shore protection dams.

The use of diorite is gaining popularity in the Georgian construction market. Also, due to the very low level of radiation in it, diorite is a safe and natural material, absolutely harmless to human health.
