Difference in Natural Granite and Marble

I. Differences in Composition

• Natural Granite: Mainly composed of minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica, it is an igneous rock formed by the cooling and solidification of magma. It has a relatively high quartz content (usually 20% - 40%).

• Natural Marble: Its main component is calcium carbonate (content about 50% - 75%). It is a metamorphic rock formed by the metamorphism of limestone under high temperature and pressure, containing a small amount of other mineral impurities, which form unique textures.

II. Applicable Scenarios

• Natural Granite:

• Suitable for kitchen countertops (high hardness, scratch-resistant, heat-resistant), outdoor floors/walls (resistant to wind and rain erosion, good frost resistance), and public place floors (strong wear resistance).

• Natural Marble:

• Suitable for indoor walls (such as feature walls), floors (such as living rooms, hotel lobbies), table tops (such as coffee tables) and other dry scenes that avoid frequent friction. It is not suitable for kitchens (easily corroded by acidic substances) and outdoor areas (prone to weathering).
