Slab Sunday: Verde San Francisco granite

Today for Slab Sunday we're looking at Verde San Francisco granite. 
Verde San Francisco is quarried in a bedrock quarry in Brazil.
It is a green granite with darker green and black veining.  There can be brown & rust colored veining and/ or spots in the stone.  Most slabs have a dark red garnet in them as well.

Verde San Francisco is also commonly known as Verde Maritaca.  Other names include: Verde Maritaka, Verde Candeias, Verde Foresta, Verde Savana and Verde Kiwi.

Below is an outdoor bench we installed a few years ago. This granite holds up great outdoors.

The Verde San Francisco in the photo below has been honed. I really like this granite with a honed finish on it.
