How does marble differ from limestone there than color?

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.
