Fantasy Brown is an Indian stone. This is one of the most sought after materials in India. This has a beige, brown, white background with brown, blue, and sometimes purple streaks and a cloudy pattern. This is primarily used for kitchen countertops, work tables, and flooring.

Most people are confused that it should be called marble or it should be called granite. This has all the similarities with marble and granite. Here we try to find out what exactly it is.

chemical test

Physical testing of this stone suggests that it has a lot of calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is one of the main elements of any stone to be marble. This stone has a lot of calcium carbonate with silica. But it also has a very good percentage of quartz. This quartz makes the stone more difficult to cut. However, the percentage of quartz is not much and this material is cut on a marble saw. The cutting of this stone is not very difficult and we can cut this stone on a normal marble saw. This is one of the reasons why it is more of a marble than a granite.

Physical exam

The physical test of this stone suggests that the hardness of this stone is below the level of granite. This is an easy stone to cut. The shine of this material after polishing is not like that of granite. Granite is a very hard material due to the richness of quartz. The hardness makes the material more polished. The polishing of this marble is done in marble polishers. Does not require heavy granite polishers. Also during polishing, this material has been found to have a large portion of sludge. Normally when polishing granite the sludge portion is much less, but Fantasy Brown expels a lot of sludge due to its softness towards hard abrasives. Fantasy brown does not have the strength found in granite. It must be packed with the net on the back, as it is a soft and brittle material. The net binds this material together and does not allow it to crack.

Aside from chemical and physical test, the appearance of this beautiful stone is more like marble. Unlike granite, it has different patterns and colors. Granite is more consistent in patterns.

conclusion

After testing, we have a final verdict that fantasy brown is a strong and beautiful marble, but it is certainly not a granite. We should call this material Fantasy Brown Marble and not Fantasy Brown Granite.
