About Emerald Green

Emerald Green is a breathtaking quartzite quarried in Brazil, also known by the name Gaya. This natural stone is celebrated for its intense, light green coloration and a complex network of veins in shades of gold, copper, and dark green. As a true quartzite, it offers exceptional hardness—ranking a 7 on the Mohs scale—making it highly resistant to acids, heat, and scratches. This durability makes it an ideal choice for high-traffic surfaces like kitchen countertops and outdoor cladding. Interestingly, its vibrant hue is often attributed to trace amounts of chromium and vanadium present during its metamorphic formation.
