Black galaxy granite is sourced in the Ongole area of South India. The granite material is rated a 4.5 on the Moh’s scale of hardness, which is considered relatively hard. There is harder building materials, such as quartz, but granite is durable enough to withstand most common use.

Black Galaxy granite has a dark black background, a greenish/black shading, or has some white in the background. Some lower quality material may have lines running throughout. The beautiful and distinguishing factor of black galaxy granite is the metallic flecks, caused by the presence of broncite, and can come in a few varying grades:

• Large grained
• Medium grained
• Small grained

Black Galaxy granite is available in both slabs and tiles to allow for creative and coordinated installations. This durable granite is suitable for both interior and exterior projects and recommended for granite countertops, accent walls, backsplashes, cladding, floors, and other features.

When assessing the quality of choosing black galaxy granite, there are several things to consider,but they will have the biggest impacts on price and overall visual quality of the stone are lines (veins), galaxy size, and galaxy distribution.

Being a natural stone material, black galaxy granite can have lines or veining running through it. This quality is what gives granite it’s beauty, but it not as desired in galaxy granite. The ratings of lines are typically laid out in the following order:

• Grade A – no lines
• Grade B – one or two black lines
• Grade C – more than two black lines
• Grade D – many black and white lines

The colored flecks of broncite are referred to as “galaxy,” and the size of galaxy has an impact on the quality of the material. The desirability of the size is as following:

1. Large galaxy
2. Medium galaxy
3. Small galaxy

Another galaxy factor that is considered is galaxy distribution

• Even galaxy distribution
• Uneven galaxy distribution
