Does Cullinan Quartzite scratch easily?

Cullinan Quartzite, like other types of quartzite, is known for its durability and hardness. Quartzite generally rates around 7 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, which means its quite resistant to scratching by most materials. Common household items like steel knives (which usually rate around 5-6 on the Mohs scale) wont scratch quartzite surfaces. However, it can still be scratched by materials that are as hard or harder, such as other quartzite surfaces, granite, or diamond-tipped tools. While it is resistant to scratches compared to softer stones like marble, its always wise to use trivets, cutting boards, and other protective measures to maintain its finish and appearance.
