But how to distinguish them? quarzt stone and artificial stone both are man-made stone, and belong to die-cast sheets, but the pressure and production equipment are different. First, comparing their specific gravity, quartz is higher than other stone, so artificial stone is much lighter with same size. Second, observing their side, Â Quartz stone is distributed by man-made with uniform particles distribution, inside and outside are consistent. Finally, testing their hardness, quartz hardness is second only to diamond, so its hardness is up to Mohs hardness 7 grades, so it is hard to scratch by common iron.
The most important thing is that:  you get what you pay, don’t chase low price, and ignore the quality.
