Of course, they aren't real stone.  It's a composite substance.  I used a set 
of them on a Corona mill for several years and there is no wear detectable on 
them.  Nor my teeth.

Corn is much harder than wheat and, like you, I wouldn't use the wheat burrs 
for corn.  The best mills for corn (best stones and best burrs) don't crush 
the corn like a mortar and pestle, but rather they shear off tiny flakes.      </HTML>
