It starts with the appearance of grey/white coloured spots. Usually hairline cracks are generatedradiating out from the spots and interconnecting them.
This reduces the strength of the mineral fabric, and as a result the rockdecays to small particles.
Depending on the source this process can take place within months of extraction or extend overseveral decades. In exceptional cases a rapid decay results in the formation of large cracks and the breaking of aggregateparticles.
