1. • Marble is a non-foliated
metamorphic rock composed of
recrystallized carbonate minerals,
most commonly calcite or dolomite.
Geologists use the term "marble".
Also, marble is metamorphosed
limestone, composed of fairly pure
calcite (a crystalline form of calcium
carbonate, CaCO3). It is extensively
used for sculpture.
• If you need a marble first find where
it is to form the rock. In this world
there are 3 types of rocks they are
sedimentary, metamorphic, and
igneous(magma).

heaved or spalled areas along
with acid etching and
pressure washing the surface
using a 3000 psi pressure
washer to remove any final
latencies...
