Granite is an igneous rock formed from the slow crystallization of magma beneath the Earth's surface. Composed primarily of quartz, feldspar, and mica, granite is known for its granular texture and a wide range of colors, from light shades of white, gray, and pink to darker tones of black and green. Its durability and resistance to scratching, heat, and weathering make it one of the most sought-after materials in construction and design. The natural beauty of granite, combined with its strength, makes it a popular choice for both interior and exterior applications, from kitchen countertops to monuments and outdoor paving.
