Yes quartzite gets sold as like a granite.
I have seen many etch be careful test before refining if possible.
Some aren't a picnic to polish.

If the stone has any calcium in it, it will etch. Perhaps this stone has
some calcium in it which is causing the etching to occur.

Did any of you have seen this one?  It etches and scratches like Marble but
fabricator sold it as quartzite.
Can quartzite etch?
