What grade is Egypt’s White Safaga Granite?
I dont have information on the specific grading system for granite in Egypt. However, in general, granite can be graded based on various factors such as color, pattern, presence of veins, thickness, and consistency of the material. The grade of granite will also affect its price and suitability for different applications.
