That is indeed Brazilian black slate used for the flooring here. As far as I know, this wasn't treated differently from a typical slate tile installation -- it would be finished with a matte sealer. It may be either the lighting here or the smoothness of the slate's surface that's causing the sheen look. It may be worth talking to your contractor if you're trying to replicate the end result here.
