River Bordeaux Granite Countertops and Surfaces

River Bordeaux Granite:

Origin: River Bordeaux granite, sometimes called Netuno Bordeaux, and Neptuno Bordeaux is quarried from a quarry located in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Once in Brazil the River Bordeaux and Netuno Bordeaux are technically different granite types because they come from two neighboring quarries. However, formed under the same conditions and with the same minerals, it is impossible to distinguish the difference without tracing the stone directly to its location of origin. Therefore, when you're buying the granite in the US, these two ae interchangeable - same colors and characteristics.

The Typhoon Bordeaux quarry is near the River Bordeaux quarry, and although they too have some of the same colors, they are easy to distinguish. 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. As with all natural stone product, it is sealed to extend its longevity.
