Quarries for trap rock were operated in the area from 1841 to 1896,[1] leading to the community’s name being changed first to Granite Village, then Graniteville. According to College of Staten Island professor, geologist Alan Benimoff, this name is a misnomer, as the quarry actually contained no granite. Granite is made of potassium feldspar. The rock at the quarry is composed of sodium feldspar. Also, professor Benimoff discovered trondhjemite at the site, a rare mineral.
