http://www.tripurastones.in/query.php In India, most marble forms at convergent plate boundaries which are a large area of Earth's
crust and are exposed to regional metamorphism process. Marble also forms by contact
metamorphism i.e. when a hot magma body heats gets in contact to adjacent limestone or

White Marble has grey form in it because of impurities. But these impurities form a design in the white marble and make it more beautiful. Before metamorphism process, the calcite in the limestone is in the form of fossil material and biological debris. During metamorphism process, this calcite rock re-crystallizes and the texture of the rock changes. In the early stages of metamorphism process of the limestone-to-marble transformation, the calcite crystals in the

As metamorphism progresses, the small crystals combines and the crystals grow larger and become easily recognizable as interlocking crystals of calcite. Re-crystallization changes the original fossil form and sedimentary structures to form a rock of the limestone and dolostone.
This rock stone is cut into slabs of various sizes and termed as Marble Slabs.
White Marble in India – Supplier http://www.tripurastones.in/query.php Marble that has been exposed to low levels of metamorphism will have very small calcite
crystals. The crystals become larger as the level of metamorphism progresses and form various
structures in the marble stone.

Clay minerals within the marble will alter to micas to design different color designs in the marble stone and more complex silicate structures as the level of metamorphism increases that will
