Quartzite is more durable than granite, offers an exotic look, and is a material that lasts a very long time, which makes it a great choice for a high-grade countertop that will last.

 

Quartzite is made almost entirely of quartz, with the difference that quartzite is a natural material. Quartzite begins its life as sandstone, which under a natural process of heat and pressure, is fused with quartz to create the strong material.

Quartzite is a very durable material, it’s resistant to acids, and it’s non-porous. It’s usually white or light-colored, although it can have hues of green, blue, or iron-red.
