Vancouver Quartzite
Vancouver Quartzite
Vancouver Quartzite features a beige background and subtle gold veins. All-natural quartzite is more durable than granite and is known for its wispy and dramatic veins. It is a metamorphic rock that is formed when sandstone is subjected to extreme heat and pressure caused by tectonic plate compression under the earth's crust. Quartzite has the look and feel of marble but is actually harder than granite. When properly sealed, quartzite offers an easily cleaned and highly sanitary and bacteria free surface. It is ideal for interior use including kitchen and bathroom counter tops, tub decks, fireplace surrounds, bar tops and more.
