Marble is not made from igneous rock. Marble is a metamorphic rock made from either limestone or dolormite. Its texture is non-foliated. Non-foliated metamorphic rocks are those which either receive equal pressure from all sides as they form, or they are those which were formed from minerals that did not have any distinct patterns of growth. Pure marble is white. The swirling and splotches of color in marble come from substances such as clay, sand, and silt in the limestone. So as the limestone is changing into marble, the clay, sand, silt and other elements in the limestone become swirls or splotches of color.
Marble is a heterogeneous mixture. This means the rock is made out of two different mixtures, you can tell this because of the swirls that occur in it.
"Marble" (v.) means to gently mix two different ingredients together using a sweeping figure-eight motion. When preparing cakes using a chocolate and vanilla batter, dollops of the chocolate batter have some of their content dragged through the white vanilla batter, creating swirls in the finished product. The end result shows these swirls together that mimicks the look of cut marble stone.
