Question of the Day: Before I get my granite countertops…what happens at the quarry?
This is a quarry where natural stone is extracted for your countertops
The quarry is the large pit from which your natural stone is extracted. The granite comes out of the quarry in massive blocks that are extricated from larger sections of stone with giant specialized machinery that takes great care in preserving the integrity of the stone. These blocks are then cut into smaller pieces in the form of slabs or tile.
The slabs and tiles are cut with precision wire saws or high pressure water jetting. The cuts are cut in manner of insuring uniformity in size and thickness. This allows for easier transport and handling. Finally, the slabs and tiles are polished for presentation, bundled and loaded in trucks for delivery.
