Preferred term

crust  

Type

  • owl:NamedIndividual

Definition

  • Generally coherent accumulation of materials on the surface. A crust may include exogenic deposits in combination with materials derived from the stone. A crust is frequently dark coloured (black crust) but light colours can also be found. Crusts may have an homogeneous thickness, and thus replicate the stone surface, or have irregular thickness and disturb the reading of the stone surface details. [ICOMOS-ISCS] (en)
