Which is more expensive in the USA: marble or quartzite?
Pricing varies widely based on rarity and origin, but generally, high-end quartzite can be more expensive than common marble varieties like Carrara. However, rare Italian marbles like Calacatta or Statuario are among the most expensive stones on the market. Quartzite's higher fabrication costs due to its extreme hardness can also increase the final installed price.
