Rajasthan has a fascinating array of rocks and minerals, one of which is fossil-rich Habur limestone (also referred to as Abur limestone1), named after the village Habur (27°19¢N : 70°33¢E). This rock is considered of lower Cretaceous–Aptian age, which makes it 125–112 million years old. The brown coloured, ferruginous claybearinglimestone is rich in small fossils that give it a unique, eye-catching calligraphic texture.The village land was under sea millions of year ago so fossil stones have been formed which have amino acid, phynile alinia and riftaphen tyroseen.

Habur stone, the miraculous fossil stone is said to have been formed 125 million years ago, by sea shell formation in Jaisalmer.It has huge medicinal properties like diabetic cure, blood pressure control etc. It can turn milk into curd without fermentation. When lukewarm-milk is kept in this stone for 12 hour , good tasty curd is found.

It is really the Habur limestone of which the locals are particularly proud. Reddish brown in color with a dark black pattern, it is rich in fossil bacteria. This explains why milk turns to curd overnight when left in a glass molded from the limestone.

Also, don’t wash it with any kind of soap or chemical, it may harm the bacteria or their natural process. Clean the Habur glass with just normal water and rub slowly, that’s it!
