I would be very careful with your decision. A countertop can be considered a food-contact surface, yes? You should strongly consider a food-grade sealer. Most sealers are highly toxic.
I recommend using a food-grade varnish. It’s far more durable and long-lasting than mineral oil, but not as much so as other sealers.

Edit: hopefully a working link?
Btw: it’s waaaay cheaper anywhere else but amazon, for some reason.

It recommends 3 coats, but I think I ended up with 5, sanding with finish grade steel wool between coats.
This is the second one I made, the first was for my oldest son about 4 years ago. The finish faded in luster considerably, so I thought adding a few more coats would help prolong the gleam.
