Granite
Granite is-quite literally-as old as the earth, It is formed from liquid magma, the molten rock still found at the core of the planet, cooled slowly to form a substance approaching the hardness and durability of diamond. The chemical composition of granite is similar to that of lava. However, granite owes its hardness and density to the fact that it has been solidified deep within the earth, under extreme pressure. The characteristics of granite also make this stone heat resistant. It can withstand heat up to 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. You won't have to worry about any burn or char marks. Seams or joints in your stone can weaken it so you probably don't want to put a pot of boiling water near a seam.
