Managing director of one of the stone factories in Fars province: With the type of treatment we had, the value of stone has decreased and stone harvesting in the province is mostly raw.

According to the International Iranian Stone Exhibition, Majid Tavakoli said: "Natural stones, which due to their minerals, are not harmful to health, also due to the variety of colors, textures and availability, have faced architects with a wide range of choices. Different types of buildings are efficient.

 Tavakoli said: Iran is one of the rich countries in the discussion of decorative stones and has huge reserves of decorative stones in the world.

He added: "These stones are profitable both in terms of exports and domestic products, which adds value to the country's income."

The managing director of Kuh-e-Noor Pars stone complex factory stated: The reserves of decorative stones in Iran are about 5 billion tons, of which 500,000 tons are exported annually.

Tavakoli, stating that our country has the ability to produce 12 billion tons of decorative stones annually and reach the top five in the world, added: "Currently, we are ranked 20th in the world in terms of exports."

Pointing out that few countries have a variety of Iranian stones, he added: "Currently, most of the stone products in our country are from the provinces of East and West Azerbaijan, Fars, Kerman, Yazd, Lorestan and Isfahan."

The manager of Kuh-e-Noor Pars stone complex stated: Sang-e-Kuh-e-Noor Pars has started its activities in Fars province with the aim of creating entrepreneurship and providing specialized advice to the people and showing all kinds of building, decorative and facade stones.
