Abstract

The granodiorite of the Lozjanska Reka, western Macedonia, has been examined in order to determine the possibility to be used as an
architectural stone. The samples were taken from the surface parts, and the results from their physical and mechanical examination have
shown that rock mass itself satisfies all requirements form the use as architectural stone according to the state standards of R. Macedonia.
Also the quality of the stone is greater in the deeper parts of the terrain where the influences from the outside have a very small effect. This
stone does not have highly decorative features but it has a very fine grained structure which has a positive effect for the technical
characteristics and for the being a subject for processing.
