&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bloodstone&lt;/strong&gt;, green jasper dotted with bright red spots of iron oxide, was treasured in ancient times and served for a long time as the birthstone for March. This attractive chalcedony quartz is also known as heliotrope because in ancient times polished stones were described as reflecting the sun: perhaps the appearance of the gem reminded the ancients of the red setting sun, mirrored in the ocean.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Medieval Christians often used bloodstone to carve scenes of the crucifixion and martyrs, for which reason it was also dubbed the martyr's stone. According to the legend about the origin of bloodstone, it was first formed when drops of Christ's blood fell and stained some jasper at the foot of the cross. A beautiful example of carved bloodstone with the seal of the German Emperor Rudolf II can be seen at the Louvre in Paris.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even today, finely pulverised bloodstone is used as a medicine and aphrodisiac in India. Perhaps that explains why it is now rather difficult to find fine specimens of bloodstone on the market. Bloodstone is mined in India, Australia, and the United States.&lt;/p&gt;

But because stone has interspace itself, so stone sink is very easy to be polluted. Clean stone sink becomes the required course to stone sink users. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
How to remove stubborn dirt on the stone sink? Actually, it is not hard. Clean stone sink following below steps can give back a new look to sink.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
First of all, we can use neutral stone detergent to clean stone sink. If neutral detergent does not have effect, you can try detergent with stronger detergency to clean stone sink. Pay attention to distinguish the acidity and alkaline of stone itself, and what kinds of chemical substances twill react with the stone. For example, marble is alkalescent, and should use alkalescent detergent while granite is acidic should use acidic detergent.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Then wet the surface with pure water. This helps to avoid the overquick dry of detergent, can make it have a better contact and react with stain,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Afterwards, prepare some gypsum, to absorb the stain on the stone sink. Gypsum can be replaced by flour. A few tablespoons detergent mix one cup flour, stir evenly, that is ok. Of course you can buy chemical gypsum. If the stain contains red wine, replace detergent by perhydrol. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Cover the stain with thick gypsum and plastic cloth, keep wet. Leave it overnight.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
After 24 hours, remove the plastic cloth, but not gypsum. This is very important. With the help of evaporation drying of the water in the gypsum, can suck out the water in the stone sink, and then draw out the stain.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
After natural drying up, clean up the gypsum by blade or putty knife. And then use water and neutral detergent to clean the rest stain.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
Granite is harder to clean, needing more time, keeping the wet time longer. If most stain has cleaned, and there are still some little stain which making the stone surface dim out, you can use this method after a week or longer.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://www.isstone.com/information/single-How-to-clean-stone-sink-correctly-Id817.html</link><author>China Isstone Group</author><category>Stone Knowledge</category><pubDate>Wed, 06 Oct 2010 12:03:02 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>The Drawback Of Brazil Stone</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Although Brazil is the ninth big industrialized country in the world, and &lt;strong&gt;Brazil stone&lt;/strong&gt; profession is the sixth big manufacture country in the world, Brazil national economy is still facing many difficulties.

Hardness Generally, the harder the stone is, the more difficult the &lt;strong&gt;stone processing&lt;/strong&gt;. Also more wear and tear to the tool. As its hardness enhance, its corrosion resistance also enhance, so the cutting resistance is increase.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Mineral composition and chemical composition The composition of stone includes mineral composition and chemical composition. Different mineral compositions and chemical compositions have different processing performances. For example, the main rock-forming minerals of marble are calcite and dolomite. Their Mohs hardness is 3 and 3.5-4, less than the hardness of granite, and is easier to process. The main rock-forming minerals of granite are quartz, orthoclase, plagioclase. Their Mohs hardness is 6.5-7. The stone processing ability much depends on the content of quartz and feldspar. The more the content is, the harder the stone processing. In the aspect of chemical composition, such as the SiO2, the more the content is, the harder the stone processing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. Structure of rock Generally, the evengrained stone is easier to process than non-evengrained. The polishing quality of fine grain is higher than schistose. The glossiness of dense stone is higher than loosen one. High degree of crystal minerals, direction arrangement and same ray axis direction will improve the luster after polishing greatly.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://www.isstone.com/information/single-The-Influence-of-Stone-Processing-Id814.html</link><author>China Isstone Group</author><category>Industry News</category><pubDate>Fri, 24 Sep 2010 01:37:20 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>The advantages of granite kitchen countertops</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Granite kitchen countertops&lt;/strong&gt; can create a unique and lasting home environment.
