By the metamorphosis of limestone, marble is formed.
By the thermal decomposition of limestone, quicklime is formed.
Which process depends on the temperature and pressure.
"any type of rock, including sandstone, when exposed to enough pressure and heat, will turn into a metamorphic rock."
Under certain conditions, Marble will be formed.
Marble
Marble is a rock formed by the metamorphism of limestone.
By cooling of molten rock under the oceans
When limestone is under high pressure from overlaying rock layers and is heated by magma it can form marble.
Limestone is typically the product of accumulated decomposed marine life as it settles to the bottom of a body of water.This sedimentary rock, laid down in earlier geological ages, is the starting material for marble.When limestone is exposed to geological pressure and heat, it changes (metamorphosizes) into marble.The metamorphic stone known as marble is highly alkaline, like limestone, but is far less porous (permeable), and much denser and harder.Marble quarries are areas of the earth that were once sea bottoms, then were exposed, through tectonic plate activity, to great heat and pressure.
Slate is silt changed under pressure.
Marble is a metamorphic rock because it is formed from limestone that has been squeezed under pressure.

Marble is a rock formed by the metamorphism of limestone.
Marble is a metamorphic rock that was originally limestone that went under tremendous pressure and heat. Limestone is formed from bones and shells of fish, so marble is made from fish bones as well.
When heated, limestone forms two different things. It forms both calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. This occurs because limestone is made up of calcium carbonate.
Limestone
Marble rock is made when a sedimentary rock, which consists of limestone has undergone heat and pressure metamorphosis under temperatures in excess of 1800ºF.
All diamonds are formed under high pressure - - and high heat.
