Abstract
The chemical, mineralogical and main physical properties of 20 samples of the polygenic sedimentary 'Agnano breccias' were determined for unweathered material from abandoned quarries near the village of Agnano. These breccias consist of carbonate and silicate clasts ( approximately 40-90 vol.%) embedded in a matrix of the same chemical composition; their processes of deterioration when used as building material are briefly described.
