PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MARBLE
Physically, Marbles are metamorphic representatives of limestones and are also
siliceous calcium carbonate rocks except Green marble, which is a magnesium silicate
rock of serpentine nature of alkalis & ferromagnesian minerals.
Hardness 3 to 4 on Moh's Scale
Density 2.5 to 2.65 Kg/m3
Compressive Strength 1800 to 2100 Kg/cm2
Water Absorption Less than 1%
Porosity Quite low
Weather Impact Resistant

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF MARBLE
Chemically, both limestone and marbles are siliceous calcium carbonate rocks.
Lime (CaO) 38-42%
Silica (SiO2) 20-25%
Alumina (Al2O3) 2-4%
Other Oxides like Na, Mg 1.5 to 2.5%
Loss On Ignition (LOI) 30-32%
Chemically Green marble has 38-40% Sio2, 34-38% MgO, 2-3% Al2O3, 5-6% Iron
Oxides,1-2% CaO & 12-13% LOI. Marble and other calcareous stones, are referred to
as acid sensitive. Calcareous stones are readily dissolved in acid, therefore acidic
products should not be used on limestone and marbles. There are several types of
marbles, including calcites (from calciferous limestone), dolomites (from dolomite
limestone), serpentines (typically green marbles) and travertine (sedimentary
limestone). Each of these is similar in their composition, that being predominantly
calcium carbonate, and their capability to take a polish.
