• 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).

• …a skim coat is then applied over the entire surface to cover all repaired areas and to form the grout or mortar joints in any design you choose.
