Is Fantasy Brown Granite Marble Quartzite or Dolamite

Fantasy Brown is definitely not a granite. It is not a hard quartzite either. Fantasy Brown is marble, but there is more to it. Fantasy Brown is harder than regular marble because it went through the dolomitization process. In my opinion, it is best to call it a “hard marble” to keep the language simple. It would also be correct to call it a “dolomite” or a “dolomitic marble.”

It is also common that Fantasy Brown is categorized as “soft quartzite” In reality, there is no such thing as thing as “soft quartzite” or “hard quartzite.” Quartzite is quartzite, and it is always hard.

Some slab yards came up with soft quartzite terminology to emphasize that Brown Fantasy is harder than your standard marble, such as White Carrara Marble, Crema Marfil Marble, Calacatta Gold Marble. They also wanted to convey the message that it is not as hard as true quartzite, so they named it “fantasy brown soft quartzite” There are more examples of this. “Super White Soft Quartzite” (actually super white hard marble/dolomite) or “Shadow Storm Soft Quartzite” (actually Shadow Storm Hard Marble/Dolomite)

Some Brown Fantasy Slabs have harder parts of the stone which is more like hard quartzite. For this reason, there are also some industry experts that call Brown Fantasy a “combo stone”
