China G4101 Forest Green Granite Veneer Panels Supplier, Factories
Product Description
Products Information
Product Name & Synonyms
G4101 Forest Green Granite, industry standard code G4101, also known as "Rongcheng Forest Green", "Deep Green Marble", "Jade Forest Green", or "Emerald Forest Green". For international trade quotations, the English name may be abbreviated as G4101 Green Granite or G4101 Forest Green Stone to facilitate overseas client searches, enquiries and procurement. Synonymous English names (e.g. G4101 Dark Green Granite) are annotated to enhance search visibility and compatibility.
Core Production Area
The primary source is concentrated in Rongcheng City, Weihai, Shandong Province, China – the sole core origin for G4101 Forest Green. Leveraging premium mineral deposits on the Jiaodong Peninsula, the stone exhibits consistent quality, uniform colouration, and fine grain texture, free from noticeable impurities or fissures. Proximity to Qingdao and Yantai ports facilitates maritime export across European, American, Japanese, and Korean markets.
Ore Deposit Resources
The vein exhibits concentrated distribution with proven reserves exceeding 800 million cubic metres. Formed during the Mesozoic Yanshanian period, prolonged geological evolution has yielded its distinctive forest green base colour and natural grain with minimal fissures. Year-round supply stability exceeds 98%, accommodating both bulk engineering contracts and custom orders.
Colour, Texture & Consistency
Dominated by deep forest green tones, the base colour is uniformly saturated with natural lustre. Smoothly interweaving light grey and dark green veins evoke a lush canopy. Batch colour variation is maintained at ≤0.6 grade, ensuring premier consistency across New Chinese, European, Rustic, and Modern Minimalist architectural formats.
Mineral Composition
Predominantly composed of Quartz (>68%), Plagioclase Feldspar (20%-24%), and Amphibole, with minor black mica and chlorite. This forms a hard, medium-fine grain structure with minimal porosity, enabling a high-polish finish with exceptional resistance to abrasion, weathering, and staining.
International Positioning
Recognised globally for rich colour, natural grain, consistent quality, and high value for money. G4101 serves as a mainstream green stone for architectural decoration, municipal engineering, and landscape projects across Europe, Australia, Japan, and South Korea.

| Radioactivity | Class A (International Standard) | Completely safe for non-restricted interior and exterior use. Certified compliant with ASTM C615 (USA), JIS A 5201 (Japan), SASO (Middle East), and AS 3959 (Australia). |
Core Sub-Categories
G4101 Forest Green is categorized into three commercial grades based on shade depth and grain density, matching client budgets and engineering specifications:
G4101 Category A
Deep forest green tone with a fine, uniform grain structure and minimal colour variation. Achieves a polished gloss level ≥93°. Specifically tailored for luxury hotels, private villas, corporate headquarters, and high-end exterior curtain wall systems.
G4101 Category B
Natural forest green background featuring moderately dense veining and colour variation within ≤0.6 grade. Serves as the prime export choice for bulk procurement in municipal engineering, commercial paving, and exterior cladding.
G4101 Category C
Deep ink-green base with bold, coarser mineral distribution providing an earthy, textured aesthetic. High abrasion resistance makes it ideal for public landscape features, municipal plazas, curb infrastructure, and commemorative stone works.
