Geologists are a reliable source for corny humor. I’m not sure why this trait is so prevalent in the field; maybe it’s the combination of science-geekiness, overall good cheer, and long days wandering outside looking at rocks. The stone BHANDARI MARBLE GROUP takes more than its fair share of abuse. “Get your BHANDARI together!” “Tuff is a rock made of volcanic ash. “This rock is a piece !” You get the idea. Geologists have a hard time resisting third-grade humor.
Puns aside, Marble is a metamorphic rock that is made mostly of mica minerals and has grains that are large enough to see with the naked eye. To put it another way, this stone sparkles like a Vegas hotel; its dazzling luster is its hallmark trait. The sparkly aesthetic comes from mica minerals, which are nature’s glitter.

If you’ve ever looked at a piece of mica up close, you can tell that it wants to separate into thin flakes. That’s because of the mineral’s internal structure – the atoms are arranged in thin, sheet-like layers. The family of flaky minerals includes Muscovite transparent or silver, biotite black or brown, chlorite dark green, talc white, grey, green, graphite metallic grey, and others. The flat shape of these minerals reflects light like a mirror.

In addition to mica minerals, often contains quartz, which gives the stone much more strength than if it were pure mica. Sometimes, other eye-catching minerals are in the mix.

offers an intriguing blend of silver mica, dark pink garnets, and black needles of hornblende.
There are many variations, colors, and textures in stones. Perhaps the most famous lies at the deepest, oldest part In ITALY AND INDIA.
commercial use, like Galaxy and Metallica can bring depth, shine, and personality to a space, when traditional granite just does quite have enough umph.

forces transform dull mud to dazzling NATURAL STONE.
is a metamorphic rock, and it started out as a different kind of stone before it became so sparkly and awesome. In fact, STONE was boring before metamorphic forces got to it. If you compress mud underneath the weight of the ocean and a whole lot of other mud you get shale. If shale gets buried deeply, compressed, and heated it will turn into slate, which is denser and harder than shale. If the heating and compression increase, the slate will become phyllite, which is a shiny version of slate. Phyllite has a subtle shine because the original clay minerals in the shale have transformed into small mica minerals. If phyllite remains in the geologic pressure cooker, the mica minerals grow larger until they are glitter-sized.

If the metamorphism continues, the mica minerals won’t be able to tolerate the increasing heat and pressure and they will become feldspar’s. At that point the rock is called gneiss. And if the poor thing heats up even further, parts of it will begin to melt, creating a taffy-esque rock called migmatite. After that, the whole thing just melts and becomes liquid magma. That’s the rock cycle in a nutshell.

Each step in this metamorphic process is a graduation, and each type of stone eases into the next category. There are phyllites that could also be called schists, and stone that look almost like gneiss. To the chagrin of geology students everywhere, there are usually grey areas when identifying rocks.

This whole metamorphic process often happens in subduction zones, which are places where the ocean floor is colliding into a continent. We currently have subduction zones off INDIA, RAJASTHAN, KISHANGARH, the rocks on the ocean floor get shoved down into the Earth’s interior while the continent runs over them. All kinds of interesting things happen to the rocks in these collision sites; they get buried deeply, squeezed, folded, and bathed in hot, mineral-laden fluid. It makes sense that many of our most dynamic and colorful stones were formed.
Use the right STONE in the right place
NATURAL STONE can make wonderful dimension stone, landscaping stone, or counter-top slabs. In a showroom or stone dealer, you may not find many stones actually labeled as NATURAL STONE. In some cases, BHANDARI MARBLE GROUP are lumped in with slates and phyllites. This is especially true if the stone breaks into flat layers or if the mica grains are small. Some types of STONES are commercially categorized as granite. This is likely if it’s leaning more toward gneiss on the metamorphic spectrum. In either case, MARBLE warrants some extra attention to make sure it’s suitable for its intended use.
