Kashmir Gold Granite (also Kashmir Gold Scuro/Chiaro, Cashmere Gold, Cachmere Gold) is a medium-grained granite quarried in Melur, Madurai District, Tamil Nadu, India. The stone is known for its warm gold and yellow tones interspersed with grey/black veins and specks. 'Scuro' (dark) and 'Chiaro' (light) are colour-grade qualifiers applied by European sellers to describe darker and lighter slabs from the same quarry area — both are trade names for the same stone family.
