Maastrichtian building stones from the Mergelland type region; more than Maastricht stone
conference paper
A journey along historical buildings in the chalk district around Maastricht, located in Dutch southern Limburg, the Belgian province of Limburg and the adjacent Aachen-Liège border zone, becomes a discovery tour for local building materials (Dreesen et o1.,2019). By origin, they are natural objects, showing peculiar aspects of geodiversity which might have remained unnoticed when theywould not have been transformed into cultural objects, and not to forget the influence of time on the state of the buildings, This contribution brings an overview of building stones of Cretaceous age in the Maastrichtian chalk district, as an update to Dusar et ol. (2009) and a complement to Keuller ef ol. (1970), Felder & Bosch (2000) and Nijland et ol. (2017).
