For your kitchen or bathroom project, the quartzite countertop provides a touch of authenticity to your decor. This natural stone often comes from Brazil and India. Quartzite is more compact, durable and resistant to scratches and patina caused by acids than marble. Granite au Sommet and its quartzite suppliers offer a wide selection of quartzite slices for your kitchen countertop and bathroom vanity projects. Quartzite is a stone made almost exclusively from quartz ores. The life cycle of quartzite goes from a simple grain of sand to soapstone which will then be transported under other layers of stone and which will be heated and pressurized further. With enough heat and pressure, the grains lose their original shape and fuse with their neighbors to form a much denser and harder stone. The transformation process is similar to snowflakes turning into ice under pressure. Quartzite countertops are often pale colors (white, beige, gray). Other minerals can add more colorful shades such as yellow, pink, blue and green. Regardless of color, quartzite is made from quartz ore. Unlike quartz countertops, quartzite is 100% natural. Due to its rarity, quartzite is a unique stone that provides a touch of exoticism to your kitchen counters and kitchen islands. Quartzite countertops are impervious to heat and scratches. It is important to note that quartzite is a little more sensitive to acids than granite. More resistant than marble, the quartzite countertop is magnificent but can change its appearance over time. One of the most popular quartzite on the market is Super White aka Arabescato, is in reality a Dolomite?
