Cut with a circular saw and 40 tooth carbide blade and a straight edge. Corian is heavy, support both sides of the cut to prevent breaking as you finish the cut. If possible cut from the bottom side. That way any chipping caused by the saw tooth exiting the cut is minimized. Cut at a comfortable speed. Don't cut too fast to cause chipping, don't cut too slow as that can cause melting from heat of the blade.
Corian is the same material and color all the way through, no sealing of edges, just sand lightly.
