Quartzite
The parent rock for quartzite is quartz-rich sandstone. As sandstone
becomes deeply buried, rising temperature will fuse the quartz grains
together forming the extremely hard and weather-resistant rock
quartzite. Like marble, quartzite comes in many colors, but when pure it
is light-
colored.
Quartzite tends to have a sugary appearance, and when broken the
fractures cut through the sand grains, not around them as with a
sandstone.
Great for veneering Buildings, Walls, Patios & Walkways, Indoors and Outdoors
