Marble is a fairly easy-to-work rock. In the geology, marble is called a metamorphic rock, a species formed of limestone exposed to very high pressures and temperatures. This will change the chemical composition and crystal structure of the original rock. The pure marble is white. But it is often found that different kinds of impurities give the rock different colors. Often we see it as a flammable pattern. It is also what you usually refer to as a marbled surface or pattern. As with granite, it is also estimated that the marble shifts in color are judged by a three-degree scale - high, medium and low.
