Iran Marble Travertine Onyx Limestone:
Marble:
Marble is formed from limestone by heat and pressure in the earth's crust. These forces cause the limestone to change in texture and makeup. This process is called recrystallization. Fossilized materials in the limestone, along with its original carbonate minerals, recrystallise and form large, coarse grains of calcite. Impurities present in the limestone during recrystallization affect the mineral composition of the marble that forms. The minerals that result from impurities give marble wide variety of colours. The purest calcite marble is white. Marble containing hematite has a reddish colour. Marble that has limonite is yellow, and marble with serpentine is green.
Travertine:
Travertine stone is soft and delicate to look at. It breathes spaciousness. It's relaxed and soothing. The feeling is peaceful, tranquil, serene.

I. Sedimentary stone came from organic elements such as glaciers, rivers, wind, oceans, and plants. Tiny sedimentary pieces broke off from these elements and accumulated to form rock beds. They were bonded through millions of years of heat and pressure.
» Limestone: Mainly consists of calcite. It does not show much graining or crystalline structure. It has a smooth granular surface. Varies in hardness. Some dense limestone's can be polished. Common colors are black, gray, white, yellow or brown. It is more likely to stain than marble. Limestone is known to contain lime from sea water.
Persian Marble company has the following product in Limestone group: 1st Choice Limestone, Beige Limestone 2nd, Gohara 2nd Choice Limestone, Gohara 1st Extra Limestone.
» Sandstone: Is a very durable formation of quartz grains (sand). Usually formed in light brown or red colors. Categorized by the most popular sandstone bonding agents such as silica, calcium, clay, and iron oxide.
» Soapstone: A very soft stone made of a variety of talc. It is a dense mineral that wears well and is often resistant to stains.
» Fossilstone: Considered a limestone that contains natural fossils such as sea shells and plants.
» Travertine: Usually a cream or reddish color. It is formed through the accumulation of calcite from hot springs. It contains lots of holes that were formed from water flowing through the stone. These holes are often filled with synthetic resins or cements. Requires lots of maintenance if the holes are not filled. Classified as a limestone and a marble.

II. Metamorphic stone originates from a natural change from one type of stone to another type through the mixture of heat, pressure, and minerals. The change may be a development of a crystalline formation, a texture change, or a color change.
» Marble: A recrystallized limestone that formed when the limestone softened from heat and pressure and recrystallized into marble where mineral changes occurred. The main consistency is calcium and dolomite. Ranges in many colors and is usually heavily veined and shows lots of grains. Hardness rates from 2.5 to 5 on the MOH Scale.
Marble is classified into three categories: (Stone World)
1. Dolomite: If it has more than 40% magnesium carbonate.
2. Magnesian: If it has between 5% and 40% magnesium carbonate.
3. Calcite: If it has less than 5% magnesium carbonate.
» Slate: A fine grained metamorphic stone that formed from clay, sedimentary rock shale, and sometimes quartz. Very thin and can break easily. Usually black, grey, or green.
» Serpentine: Identified by its marks which look like the skin of a serpent. Most popular colors are green and brown. Hardness rates from 2.5 to 4 on the MOH Scale. Contains serpentine minerals has lots of magnesium, and has an igneous origin. Does not always react well to recrystallization or diamond polishing.
III. Igneous stones are mainly formed through volcanic material such as magma. Underneath the Earths surface, liquid magma cooled and solidified. Mineral gases and liquids penetrated into the stone and created new crystalline formations with various colors.
» Granite: Primarily made of Quartz (35%), Feldspar (45%) and Potassium.
Usually has darker colors. Contains very little calcite, if any.
Provides a heavy crystalline and granular appearance with mineral grains. It is very hard material and easier to maintain than marble.
Yet, it is still porous and will stain. There are different types of granite depending on the percentage mix of quartz, mica and feldspar.
Black granite is known as an Anorthosite. It contains very little quartz and feldspar and has a different composition than true granite.
IV. Man Made Stones are derived of unnatural mixtures such resin or cement with the additive of stone chips.
» Terrazzo: Marble and granite chips embedded in a cement composition.
» Agglomerate or Conglomerate: Marble chips embedded in a colored resin composition.
» Cultured or Faux Marble: A mix of resins that are painted or mixed with a paint to look like marble.

Natural Stone - The Technical & The Practical:
Marble:
1) In Geology, a metamorphic rock made up largely of calcite or dolomite. 2) In dimension stone, a rock that will polish and that is composed mainly of calcite or dolomite or, rarely, serpentine. Marble, the most commonly referred to natural stone, is typically polished but also available in honed finishes. Ranges from fairly "soft" to "somewhat hard" as natural stones go. Massive array of colors and visual textures. Suitable for light commercial or normal residential use; typically unsuitable for very high-use or very high-traffic areas (many exceptions). Not suitable for Kitchen counter installations. The term is sometimes used (incorrectly from a technical standpoint) to include all natural stones.Travertine:
A variety of limestone deposited by hot or cold water as cavern fillings, including stalactites and stalagmites, or as accumulations at springs. Travertine, usually included in the general grouping of Marble, is characterized by naturally occurring pits and fossils in the stone material, filled during the manufacturing process in the case of polished travertine. This characteristic fill typically yields a "semi-polished" material. "Medium" hardness as natural stones go, it is suitable for medium commercial and residential use. Some travertine's are also available in unfilled form, lending a profound visual texture to the material (practicality notwithstanding). Not suitable for Kitchen counter installations.Onyx:
A banded, varicolored form of quartz. Characterized by its translucency, Onyx is almost strictly a decorative stone. It's typically high cost and fragility make it unsuitable for most usages. Beautiful, but should be considered "soft" as natural stones go. Limited to vanities or low use areas residentially.Limestone:
Rock of sedimentary origin composed principally of calcite or dolomite or both.Limestone is a typically "soft" natural stone, most often honed but depending on density can be polished. "Very soft" to "medium" as natural stones go (few exceptions), and generally quite porous. Suitable for light commercial and residential use. It's use in medium to high-use areas is discouraged, but can be achieved with proper monitoring and maintenance. Not suitable for Kitchen counter installations.TYPES OF STONE:
The familiar stone types that are used today are identified through four categories:sedimentary, metamorphic, igneous stone, and man-made.

TYPES OF SURFACE TEXTURES:
There are many different types of stone available today. When stone is ordered, it is fabricated with a particular type of surface.There are six main types of surfaces that are selected:
Honed: Provides a flat to low sheen gloss. Different levels of gloss can be selected. This surface is very smooth, but often very porous. This texture is common in high traffic buildings. Honed floors should always be protected with a Penetrating Sealer because it has wide-open pores. Honed stone colors are not as vibrant as a polished stone.
Polished: A glossy surface that wears away with time due to heavy foot traffic and using improper maintenance procedures. This surface is very smooth and not very porous. The reflectivity of polished crystals brings out the brilliant colors and grains of natural stone. The shine comes from the natural reflection of the stone's crystals. The polish is provided by polishing bricks and polishing powders that are used during fabrication. The shine is not from a coating. Flamed: A rough surface that is developed through intense heat. During fabrication, the stone is heated up and the crystals begin to pop, thus forming a rough surface. This surface is very porous and must be treated with Sealers.
Tumbled: A slightly rough texture that is achieved by tumbling small pieces of marble, limestone, and sometimes granite to achieve an archaic/worn appearance. It often requires an application of Stone Color Enhancer to bring out the colors. Sand
Blasted: This surface is the result of a pressurized flow of sand and water that provides a textured surface with a matte gloss.
Sawn: A process performed by using a gang saw. Bush Hammered: A pounding action that develops a textured surface. The degree of roughness can be selected. Regardless of the type of surface that is to be maintained, all stones should be protected with Penetrating Sealer. A sealer is sufficient for honed and polished floors. Sealers should be used on flamed, sand blasted, sawn, and bush hammered surfaces.
