dc.description.abstractThe study of natural dimension stones used during the construction of Nazarbayev University is carried out to prepare an excursion guide for interested audiences, particularly for students and professors of the Geology Department, NU. This study primarily focuses on the textural and mineralogical characteristics of different rocks. The mineralogical and textural findings are linked to their origin and subsequent evolution and/or modification of these rocks. This excursion guide consists of 10 points including igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks with diverse compositions, textures, and origins. Sandstone, Diorite, Quartzite, Migmatite, Serpentinite, Labradorite, K-feldspar granite, Limestone, and Tonalite used as dimension stones in various parts of NU buildings represent these spots. Finally, the findings are interpreted based on evidence that the particular rock shows; from literature peer-review and interviews with experts who built Nazarbayev University. An attempt has been made to identify the deposits from which the stones were mined.en_US
