Granite City is not the name of a country, but rather the name of a city in Illinois, United States.
The city of Aberdeen in northeast Scotland is the Granite City. The granite was quarried from Rubislaw Quarry which is within the city of Aberdeen. The quarry closed about 30 years ago because there was no more granite left. When it was fully operational, it was the deepest quarry in Europe at 450 feet deep.
The Granite City is a name given to Aberdeen, the third most populous city in Scotland. It is so called because grey granite was quarried locally, and the stone was used in past times in many of Aberdeen's buildings. Other names for Aberdeen are the Grey City and the Silver City, both references to the granite, which contains silvery mica.
That is Aberdeen, otherwise known as the granite city.
The Granite City in Scotland is Aberdeen. It earned this nickname due to the extensive use of locally quarried grey granite in its buildings.
