This origin story is key to understanding its superhero qualities in your kitchen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>The Science of Strength: More Than Just a Pretty Rock<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><strong>Sertli\u011fin Kral\u0131:<\/strong>\u00a0Granite sits near the top of the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, typically rating between 6 and 7.
