Yeah, nothing there about being reconstituted natural stone, just a mention of the yellow-green color of the one side of the stone.
Yeah that's an artificial thuri, I think partially made from sawdust of cutting thuris - same like the JGES stones. You can read ...use the yellow-green side.... which means the finer greenish looking side, and I think that clearly is an indication that Apex used their saw dust of cutting thuris too to creat artificial stones, as the natural material was not longer available in good quality. Also the performance is just like the JGES artificial thuris.
I have the same stone:

It smells like hell, I have stored it for more than a year in my garage than a long time under water, than outside - the smell doesn't dissapear. Don't know what the have used as binder...
Does it have the Same smell like the JGES stones Peter? Those smell awfully synthethic, my only comparison is like a really bad stinking sealing substance...
One would think that, if it was made of Thuringian stone, it would say so. What would the point of not saying so be? Given the long successful history of Thuris, Eschers, etc - wouldn't it make sense to capitalize on that?
Stinking sealing substance..... lol... nice description, I totally get it.
