Juparana St. Cecilia is quarried from a bedrock quarry in Espirito Santo, Brazil. It is composed mainly of rather deep yellow, coarse-grain crystals that run from elongated to nearly void. It is also possible to see yellow- brown crystals along with black biotite crystals in the stone. During the polishing process, an epoxy resin is applied to the surface of the slabs to fill in any natural pits, cracks or fissures that may exist in the stone. This does not affect the durability, maintenance or beauty of the slab. It is possible for some of the more minute pits that are too small to effectively hold the resin, to reopen during other finishing stages. However, this will not detract from the overall quality or appearance of the stone.
