Granite or quartz?

[Stoday]

I'm going to make a table with inlaid granite or quartz tiles, 600X600. Which is the more suitable?

I understand that granite is quarried, quartz manufactured. I've not handled quartz, is it like Corian? That would be unsuitable as a table top because red wine will stain it.

IMO Granite would be better.. not affected by water like some quartz composites can be.

Yes sticvk with Granite, quartz is fragile IMHO
