| Granite is an important structural and decorative
stone. It’s used for immense structural work due to its
high compressive strength and durability. It is the hardest structural
stone. Granite’s rich colors, stiffness and density, make
it an ideal choice for flooring, counter tops, vanities as well
as exterior applications. Many stylish patterns and colors make
granite the most versatile and trendy of all stones. It is also
a very low-maintenance stone. Granite is composed of quartz, feldspars,
micas and other minerals. These minerals contribute to the color
and texture of the granite stones. Granites get their wonderful
variety of colors and patterns from minerals that are melted into
the liquid mass as it is formed. |
