Shanxi Black Granite Polished Slab for Kitchen Countertop

A Chinese diabase granite: fine-grained, even jet-black with no grey patches or white speckle. Polished to a mirror face, hardness 6-7 Mohs, density 2.8-3.0 g/cm3.

All read as pure black in photos. Shanxi Black is the darkest and most consistent of the Chinese materials with the lowest batch-to-batch variation; Indian Absolute Black can carry faint mineral grain, Impala Black often shows sparkle. We match against your approved sample, not a name.
