The porosity of the surface is one of the most important points you should consider before buying a slab. Quartzite is almost non-porous, which means simple daily spills will not cause big trouble. Simple wiping the stain with a soft fabric is enough in most cases.
Since harder stains might create problems in the longer term, you can also consider sealing your stone periodically.
