Using Quartzite in an outdoor BBQ (uncovered)

Cara Fernandez
4 years ago

Need some advice....We are hoping to use some of our remnant material from our Kitchen remodel on our outdoor kitchen. It is polished Elysse Quartzite, it does have quite a few fissures throughout. When the fabricator heard what we had planned he said it wasn't a good idea since it would crack in a few years. He said if was leathered instead of polished it would be better off, but he still wouldn't recommend it. Does anyone have experience with quartzite (not quartz) outside. We live in Northern California so it can tend to get hot and have a lot of sun exposure especially during the summer months. Attached are a few photos of the quartzite that we are hoping to use. Also, if this is not a good option.... what would be recommended. We have an adjacent patio that is travertine.
