a X-ray diffractogram of five stone samples from the Anahita Temple. Calcite is the main phase, while the minor phases are quartz and dolomite. Gypsum is the minor phase in two samples (KN-7 and KN-8). b X-ray diffractogram of eight samples from the stone quarries. Calcite is detected as the main phase in all the samples. In sample BM-1 dolomite is also an important phase. Quartz is detected in two samples in significant content. Quartz, dolomite and illite/muscovite are the minor phases in other samples
