Blue Tahoe is quarried from a bedrock quarry in Brazil. It resembles marble in
appearance but is much harder and more durable. Because of this it can be
used for kitchen countertops without having the scratching and etching issues
experienced with marble. Blue Tahoe quartzite has a blue-toned, silver
background with grey veining and various areas of white throughout. It is
possible for some slabs to have light oxidation along the veins. During the
polishing process, an epoxy resin is applied to the surface of the stone to fill in
any natural pits, cracks, or fissures that may exist.
