Marble is the metamorphic daughter of limestone. Mable forms in two usual places : extreme burial or near volcanic activity.

The Franklin Marble is a formation running the backbone of the Appalachains from Georgia to New York. IT is approx 1.2-1.3 billion years old. High presure mineral assemblages suggest the Franklin marble formed at a depth of around 8 miles.

Italy is known for marble of many types. The marbles of Italy are associated with volcanic systems.
