Quartzite
 Quartzite is the result of millions of years of seashells and bones of sea creature settling as settlement on an ocean floor (hence it is called a sedimentary stone). The calcium in the bones and shells combines with Carbon Dioxide in the water to from calcium carbonate, which is the basis mineral structure of all limestone, quartzite. Less than 3% of the stone is the color which is simply other natural element present when the stone formed (i.e. Iron deposits give you a red brown).
