Yes, of course! It's Super White Quartzite (a material that is more like a granite, but looks like a marble).

Megdoh - The material source is a Brazilian quarry. It should be available in your local market. Most vendors (slab vendors, fabricators) have been working with it for about 6 months to a year if not longer.

what is your opinion on the maintenance of the quartzite? I think I am going to with it in my kitchen but I worry about it acting more like a marble.
