As a professional natural stone manufacturer and global supplier, Zhenhao Stone sources high-quality marble and granite from the finest quarries worldwide. Please see the below classic projects supplied by Zhenhao stone company.
1. Where Does Marble Come From?
Geological Formation
Marble is a metamorphic rock formed when limestone or dolomite is subjected to extreme heat and pressure over millions of years.
This process causes the stone to recrystallize, resulting in its signature smooth texture and elegant veining.
Major Marble Quarry Locations
Marble is mined in various countries, each known for unique colors and patterns:
✔ Italy – Famous for Carrara, Calacatta, and Statuario (luxury white marble).
✔ Spain – Produces Crema Marfil (beige) and Emperador Dark (brown).
✔ Turkey – Known for Aphrodisias (white) and Burdur Purple.
✔ Greece – Home to Thassos (pure white) and Volakas (gray-veined).
✔ China & India – Supply cheaper alternatives with good quality.
How Is Marble Extracted?
Quarrying – Large blocks are cut using diamond wire saws or explosives (controlled blasting).
Processing – Blocks are sliced into slabs, polished, and finished for commercial use.
2. Where Does Granite Come From?
Geological Formation
Granite is an igneous rock, formed when molten magma cools slowly beneath the Earth's crust.
It contains quartz, feldspar, and mica, giving it a speckled appearance and extreme hardness.
Major Granite Quarry Locations
Granite is found in many countries, with some of the best sources being:
✔ Brazil – Famous for Santa Cecilia (golden), Black Galaxy, and Ubatuba (green).
✔ India – Leading exporter of Absolute Black, Kashmir White, and Tan Brown.
✔ Norway & Sweden – Produce unique blue and gray granites.
✔ China & South Africa – Supply affordable yet high-quality granite.
How Is Granite Extracted?
Drilling & Blasting – Explosives create fractures to extract large blocks.
Wire Saw Cutting – Diamond-embedded cables slice granite into manageable slabs.
Polishing & Finishing – Slabs are polished to enhance their natural shine.
