Black Gold

Originally known as star galaxy granite, Black Galaxy granite is a type of granite stone and is very popular all across the world. The material of black galaxy has a blackish background with golden specks in it, hence the name. The black galaxy granite is widely used in homes and commercial establishments as flooring, counter tops or worktops. It's normally available either as small tiles which are used for flooring or as slabs for worktops. But it's most widely used as kitchen counter tops because it's a very hard and durable stone with a uniform color and background. It's generally polished and glossy on one side which is used as the surface of the worktop and it gives a brilliant contrast to the steel and metal accessories in the kitchen.

So if you are thinking of renovating your house, you can definitely opt for a Black Galaxy granite worktop for the kitchen or bathroom or even tiles for the house. It's currently one of the most cost effective types of granite available. Black Galaxy granite has all the good qualities of a typical granite such as low maintenance, hard wearing and durable, scratch, moisture, mold and heat resistant. Along with the standard advantages, it is very striking in appearance and has uniformity in color so that you can use it all over the house with the same effect. So, if you have decided to go through with black galaxy granite as one of the renovation materials for your home or office, then you can contact some of the granite providers in your neighborhood. They would definitely have the black galaxy granite in their product range. It is best to first have a look at the sample of the black galaxy granite before buying it, to judge any issues, fissures, chips or abrasions on the surface of the slab. Only after satisfaction that the granite is up to the mark, should you order the delivery. The edges of the black galaxy granite are rounded in a smooth curve, or in other designs depending on the instructions given.

Black galaxy is available and used all over the world but is mostly quarried from Andhra Pradesh in India. Here there are three types of black galaxy granite types available. These are the large speckled, medium speckled and small speckled depending on the sizes of the golden colored specks on the black background. The gold specks appear on the surface of the granite due to the presence of ferrous rich Enstatite (type of bronzite which together with iron gives a sub metallic luster). But as the quarrying has increased over the years with the growing demand for the black galaxy granite worldwide, the volume is gradually decreasing to worrisome levels. This will lead to increases in prices over time as the demand will overcome the supply. There are other places in the world where black granite can be found, but the gold speckled black granite which looks like a galaxy in a black sky is a different experience altogether!
