Plasterboard Near A Stove?

A quick question if I may. Freestanding Stove is going in a masonry builder opening, with supalux board in the recess. The stove will sit fully into the recess (not sticking out the front, with 150mm clearance to the top (manufacturer's minimum) and 200mm each side to the supalux (minimum 150mm) The main wall is plain and I do not want a fire surround, just a flat wall, with the recess in the middle.
Is it Okay to use plasterboard/plaster around the stove on the main wall, or do I need to use supalux or heat proof plaster?

Plasterboard is classed as non-combustible, but ordinary plaster may well crack in the heat.0
