Andrea Aquino, Paolo Baglini, Stefano Pagnotta, Marco Tamponi, Marco Lezzerini

Abstract

The sandstones of the Macigno Formation have been widely used in Tuscany as a building material since Roman times and even earlier by the Etruscans. In this work, we focus on the Macigno sandstone of the Monti d Oltre Serchio, on its physical properties and on its chemical, mineralogical and petrographic characteristics.
