Kashmir White and Kashmir Gold are granulites found near Madurai, Tamil Nadu state, India. The two main dimension stone types are white and gold.[1] The former is a light-coloured, in places slightly greenish rock with dark mica and red garnets,[2] and the latter (gold) is a white, predominantly orange-yellow banded rock with a heterogeneous structure. It is dotted with darker veins, burgundy, red garnets and black mineral inclusions.[3]
People often tout Kashmir White as a selling feature in expensive homes.[4] The Kashmir White and Kashmir Gold dimension stones are sometimes used for paving ground surfaces.[5] These decorative stones are also used as a countertop surface.[6]
While large deposits of granites, granitoides, limestones and marbles are found in parts of India,[7][8] neither natural stones other types are found in the Kashmir region. "Kashmir White" and "Kashmir Gold" are trade names.[9]
