Black Mist is quarried in a bedrock quarry in Brazil. This granite will have some white quartz veins along with areas of gray, with a black background, the look of this stone is similar to a soapstone, but it will require less maintenance than a soapstone. Like all honed black granites, the raw slabs will have a deep gray color tone. Once a stone enhancer is applied it will bring out the dark, black color of the granite. Black Mist Honed may need to be re-sealed every 6 months for interior use and more often for exterior use. Due to the qualities of the stone, the slabs are book-matched; meaning slab one and slab two will be cut and polished to create a mirror image of each other. These are then kept in sequence, which allows for a consistent flow in pattern.
