Selim Bešlagić, co-founder of the Institute for Materials Construction and former mayor of Tuzla, came to Visoko today to share the preliminary results of sample analysis started on July 5. The analysis measured the compression levels of sandstone found on the Pyramid of the Moon and brecca found on the Pyramid of the Sun , finding both types to be unnaturally hard, the sandstone ranging from 550 – 600 kg/cm2, and the brecca reaching 450 kg/cm2. Mr. Bešlagić said, “We don’t have to prove what kind of materials we have here after this.”

In the Institute’s analysis of the connective material used to bond the blocks, calcium hydroxide was indicated in the construction of both pyramids, with a 97% chemical similarity. To Mr. Bešlagić, this discovery proves that “the builders knew about oxidized connective material.”
Nadija Nukić, the project geologist who met with the Institute’s experts, acknowledged this to be an important result, which will allow for follow-up. “We will do chemical analysis of the sandstone and brecca, to see if this percentage of calcium hydroxide is possibly a natural emanation.” Mr. Bešlagić conferred with a geological research intitute in Slovenia which will conduct these tests and do carbon-dating on the connective material.
