Granite is an igneous rock, which is characterized by the presence of grains of fine and medium fractions of regular and irregular shapes. The composition of natural material, in various concentrations, includes quartz, feldspar, mica and other minerals.
Like many other Ukrainian granites, this natural material is one of the best in the world in terms of its decorative properties and performance characteristics. Only diamond is harder than this stone, and its strength and wear resistance are much higher than that of Chinese, Indian or Brazilian granite.
