Want this question answered?
The absolute purity doesn't exist; all the materials have impurities, less or more.
Hardness, Elasticity, Porosity, Permeability, Density, resistance to diagenesis, conditions of formation. Generalities (this means that in general the following are true and rules don't follow the exception if any exist) Hardness: marble is harder than limestone. It has a higher compressive strength and cohesion. This can get much more technical so let's leave it at that. Elasticity: Young's Modulus, shear modulus of marble is higher. Bulk modulus and poisson's ratio of marble is lower. Porosity of marble is lower. Permeability of marble is lower. Density of marble is higher. Limestone is often altered via fluids and chemical underground and marble isn't. Marble is metamorphic rock and limestone in sedimentary. Marble and Limestone are spelled different.
Disadvantages of uranium: 1. Uranium is a possible polluting agent of the natural environment. 2. Uranium is a toxic and a radioactive chemical element. 3. Uranium release radium and radon. 4. Radioactive wastes are dangerous and need to be isolated.
Just think this.....is the solar system did NOT exist then we would not exist.
when thus human exist?
It's not whether it's useful or not. Marble Chess pieces exist (~$150 or greater).
There are no helmets made specifically for Mining, but normal Helmets do exist in Minecraft.
Marble is a type of rock and it exist in nature as a mountain or hill. There is no size limit for this answer. It can weight a few kg for construction marble cut to a few Gigaton of mountain rock.
To supply people and industries with minerals, metal ores and coal, etc.

Because not all areas have raw materials suitable for quarrying ! Many minerals exist in 'pockets' - some of which are confined to small areas.
Yes, uranium exist in Greenland and is prospected now by an Australian mining company.
The gold rushes existed because gold was first found on the surface. Much of the gold was extracted by panning . Actual mining , digging deeper , came later.

because opencast mining doesnt require shafts and tunnels to be built unlike other approaches such as deep mining. it is on the surface so transportation costs from underground to ground level do not exist. insurance costs for miners may be lower as there is no risk of the mine 'caving in'.
It doesn't exist - calcium carbonate is limestone/marble - its insoluble
Two problems exist: - Collapse of the mine roof - Flooding the mine and salt dissolution
