See Santorini Pumice Mines, Santorini, Greece

Santorini has been operating pumice mines for since the 1840's. The mortar produced from Thera’s terrestrial land had been used in several ancient construction projects such as the great fortification in Crete during the Cretan Revolution, but also in earlier periods. Their strength is even increased when construction occurs with sea water.
