What Adhesive. Tiles, Fire.

    Hi Guys,

    I have a fire hearth,raised about 6'' above floor. The hearth is block built, and faced with marble.
    Just in front of the fire-box, some of the marble tiles have cracked and come loose.
    I cannot find matching tiles, but have black ceramic, gloss tiles which will do, as the area is covered by the grate, etc.

    How do I fix the tiles to the area, because of the heat I have used fireclay, under the tiles, as as a grout, but it does not last, as cleaning out the fire, breaks up the fireclay.

    Is there an adhesive/grout I can get which will resist the heat, not evaporate and smell etc
    Thanks for any suggestions.
