Peacock Blue Quartzite

Peacock Blue Quartzite is an exotic natural quartzite quarried in Brazil, distinguished by its creamy off-white to pale beige background and dramatic crystalline formations. Its most striking feature is a large, irregular cluster of smoky grey-brown crystals, resembling smoky quartz and mica, interspersed with deep charcoal-black angular mineral fragments. Subtle golden-amber accents add warmth and depth to the composition. The highly polished surface enhances the natural crystalline facets, creating a brilliant reflective appearance and emphasizing the contrast between the smooth light-colored matrix and the rugged mineral formations. Its distinctive structure makes it an exceptional choice for luxury architectural and decorative projects.

Chemical & Mineralogical Composition

Indicative composition for a quartz-dominant Brazilian quartzite with mica-rich and iron-bearing mineral inclusions. Actual values require quarry-specific laboratory analysis.

Mineralogical Composition (indicative):

• Quartz: 75–90%

• Feldspar: 3–10%

• Muscovite and Biotite: 3–12%

• Iron-bearing minerals: 0.5–4%

• Other accessory minerals: Trace amounts.

Usage

Peacock Blue Quartzite is particularly suitable for high-end architectural and decorative applications where distinctive crystalline formations and natural contrast are desired.

Maintenance

Peacock Blue Quartzite should be cleaned regularly using a pH-neutral stone cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth. A suitable penetrating stone sealer is recommended to help reduce liquid absorption and staining, particularly in kitchen and bathroom applications. Spills, especially oils, coffee, wine and acidic liquids, should be cleaned promptly. Although quartzite is generally more resistant to scratching and acidic substances than marble, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals should be avoided. Do not use abrasive pads or aggressive cleaning products that could affect the polished surface. Periodic resealing should be carried out according to the stone's porosity, installation location and frequency of use.
