Abstract :
Dielectric properties of marble stones are function of its chemical constituents and physical properties. Measurements of real ε` and imaginary ε`` part of the complex dielectric constant of marble stones with water content were made in frequency range of 0.2 GHz – 20 GHz. These samples were collected from open mining area of Nagaur, Rajsamand, Udaipur, Jaisalmer and Jodhpur district of the Rajasthan state. These measurements were carried out at room temperature. The change is observed in dielectric constant and dielectric loss of dry and water saturated marble samples. AC conductivity and loss tangent were also measured for all dry and wet samples. The bulk density and porosity were measured for all samples. The results have been presented in the form of variation of these parameter with frequency.

Key-Words / Index Term :
