As one of the purest colors, black has a strong abstract expression, which transcends the depth of any color. It seems to be the limitation of imagination. In fact, black can be an infinite imagination. Next, I will recommend some black stones, such as black marble, black granite and black onyx.
Black marble is a kind of marble, but its material is not the same as marble. Black marble is actually black colored limestone used for building decoration materials. Its structure is dense, usually containing some impurities or showing a variety of beautiful lines due to its special structure. Although the hardness is not large, it has a beautiful appearance, is not easy to deform, has high strength, long service life, strong compressive and impact resistance, and stable performance. The main materials of black marble are calcite (content less than 5%), limestone, forsterite (content between 5% and 40%) and dolomite (content more than 40%). The main component of black marble is calcium carbonate, accounting for more than 50%. Others include magnesium carbonate, calcium oxide, manganese oxide and silicon dioxide.

Black marble is the most difficult to conceal stone scratches among all stones. If there are scratches during transportation and installation, or scratches are caused by sand friction on the sole, it is difficult to achieve the same color of the glue, which will affect the later appearance.
Marble with a pure black background will have heavier traces of repair and glue repair, so be very careful in processing and construction. At the same time, the black marble is used for stone polishing. During the grinding process, the sand hidden in the grinding plate can easily scratch the marble, causing the surface to turn white.
Black marble also has restrictions on its use. In some cases where the space is not very large, the use of black materials on a large surface will make the space appear cramped and depressing. Therefore, in the case of small spaces, it is not recommended to use black marble as the finishing material.
When black marble is doing high-quality seamless processing, overall grinding, and crystal polishing, it is often due to the insufficient fineness of the gap glue and the insufficient color of the glue color paste, resulting in the whitening of the gap in the later stage.
If the black marble encounters corrosive substances, commonly known as burning board, the acidic crystalline material will easily corrode the marble surface and cause whitening.
Black is a color with strong contrast, and the ability to hide dirt is not strong. Dust, stains, and pollution are all easy to show on the black marble, causing the visual effect to be gray, so the early protective treatment is very important.
