 Indian Slate usually forms in a tectonic environment when a convergent plate boundary meets a basin that was once made of sedimentary rock. Heat and pressure convert the substances in the basin, specifically shale, to slate. Slate is composed of many of the same minerals that make up shale. When shale is heated and put under heavy pressure from tectonic plate activity, the clay minerals inside the rock revert to mica. This gives the new rock the ability to break apart, or cleave, along flat planes. Generally, the granite is available in pink, pink + black, red, red + black, red + cream + black, green, green + black, green + grey, green + yellow, cream, cream + black, brown, beige, grey, grey + black, black + white, white, white + black, etc, all of which are flat surface.
Granite is the best-known igneous rock. Many people recognize granite because it is the most common igneous rock found at Earth's surface and because granite is used to make many objects that we encounter in daily life. These include counter tops, floor tiles, paving stone, curbing, stair treads, building veneer cemetery monuments. Granite is used all around us - especially if you live in a city.
There is something about natural stones, particularly Indian natural stones that turn them so attractive before all the natural stone lovers across the world. The demand for natural stones is associated with their comprehensive strength and durability. Some granite is flamed for a smoother finish and used for both interior and exterior applications. It is also used as flagstone, step tread, wall coping, swimming pool surround, etc for residential and commercial applications.
