Granite
Granite is a common and widely-occurring type of intrusive, felsic, igneous rock. Granites are usually a white, black or buff color and are medium to coarse grained, occasionally with some individual crystals larger than the groundmass forming a rock known as porphyry. Granites can be pink to dark gray or even black, depending on their chemistry and mineralogy.
Outcrops of granite tend to form tors, rounded massifs, and terrains of rounded boulders cropping out of flat, sandy soils. Granites sometimes occur in circular depressions surrounded by a range of hills, formed by the metamorphic aureole or hornfels. Granite is nearly always massive, hard and tough, and it is for this reason it has gained widespread use as a construction stone.

Granite is a remarkable natural stone that comes in a wide variety of colors and textures. It is a hard, durable stone which requires very little maintenance and can be used for a number of your home improvement projects. Granite is an ideal product for high-traffic areas such as your bathroom and kitchen because it will maintain its original appearance for years and the tile is stain and scratch resistant.
Granite, an incredibly dense and hard-working material, comes in an amazing array of colors and textures. Granite tiles that are available in various sizes and thicknesses are used for indoor and outdoor applications for flooring, cladding walls, or pavers. Granite slabs are used for fabricating kitchen countertops, vanity tops, and other surfaces.
