Mineral Concession & Provenance
Balochistan is the global epicenter for natural Green Onyx and fine crystalline marble. Quarried in the remote volcanic terrains of Chagai (Onyx) and the folded ranges of Loralai and Lasbela (Marble), our stone is internationally coveted for its deep emerald-to-jade coloration, golden banding, and high optical translucency. Balochistan Minerals exports premium squared quarry blocks, bookmatched gangsaw slabs, and cut-to-size luxury architectural panels.
