'''Quartzite''' is a type of [[metamorphic]] [[stone]] which forms entire layers. It is a [[magma-safe]] [[stone]].
Quartzite is a type of metamorphic stone caused by contact metamorphism (direct application of extreme heat, most likely from contact with {{L|magma}}) of quartz-based {{L|sandstone}}s, causing the quartz grains and/or cement to melt and then recrystallize as multiple new quartz crystals.
