Abstract
The granodiorite of the Kosovska River, western Macedonia, has been examined in order to determine the possibility to be used as an architectural stone. The analyses themselves as well as the laboratory testings have been done on samples of granodiorite. 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 granual structure which has a positive effect for the technical characteristics and for the being a subject for processing.
