Default Fireplace Tile Project

I purchased some "made in china" marble tile from big box store, .size is
12 x 12 x 3/8 25 @ $2.00. I'm liking the price, and they look good,
but now am concerned the quality may not be so great.........I reached to
pick up one tile that was sitting on the counter.... and the corner broke
off in my hand...........they are a little heavy and I guess that when I
tried to pick up by the one corner it put too much stress on it???????????
I have very little experience with tile so not sure if this is unusual or
this is poor quality tile?
