Description
Deep greyish-blue to charcoal-grey background with a cool, sophisticated, and dense visual character. The overall tone ranges from dark steel blue to smoky graphite, with subtle variations in shade that create natural depth and an elegant exotic appearance.
Texture & Structure:
Crystalline, medium to coarse-grained igneous structure. The interlocking mineral grains create a compact, durable surface with a naturally granular appearance. Individual mineral crystals may display subtle differences in color and reflectivity, depending on the slab.
Pattern:
Generally characterized by a dense, relatively consistent dark blue-grey matrix with subtle cloudy variations and naturally distributed mineral grains. The interplay of blue-grey, charcoal, and occasional lighter mineral crystals creates understated movement without an overly prominent veining pattern. Natural variations occur between blocks and slabs.
Chemical & Mineralogical Composition:
Indicative composition for a typical blue-grey Indian granite (not laboratory-confirmed for Azul Breeze):
Mineral Composition (% by weight):
-
Quartz: 25–35%
-
Feldspar (Orthoclase and Plagioclase): 45–60%
-
Biotite and other dark silicate minerals: 5–12%
-
Amphibole and accessory minerals: 1–5%
Chemical Composition (% by weight):
-
SiO₂: 65–75%
-
Al₂O₃: 12–16%
-
K₂O: 3–6%
-
Na₂O: 2–5%
-
CaO: 1–4%
-
Fe₂O₃: 1–3%
-
MgO: 0.5–2%
-
Other oxides: Minor amounts
Usage & Maintenance:
Suitable for kitchen and bathroom countertops, flooring, wall cladding, staircases, vanity tops, reception counters, monuments, exterior paving, and architectural applications. Its dark blue-grey coloration makes it particularly suitable for contemporary, modern, and luxury projects. The dense crystalline structure generally provides good resistance to wear, scratching, and weathering. Apply a suitable penetrating stone sealer to improve stain resistance. Clean regularly using pH-neutral stone cleaners and avoid acidic chemicals, strong detergents, and abrasive cleaning materials.
