What is formed when the rock is compressed?
When rocks are compressed, they can form new types of rock through processes such as metamorphism. This can lead to the formation of foliated rocks like schist or gneiss, or non-foliated rocks like marble. The minerals in the original rock can change under pressure, creating new textures and structures.
How old is the marble in marble arch?
the marble arch was made in 1867
What is the most famous marble statue?
A marble statue is a statue made of marble :)
What is softer marble or granite?
Marble.
Where are the biggest marble and marble run situated?
The biggest marble in the world can be found in the town of Carrara, Italy, known for its high-quality marble production. The largest marble run, called "Marble Mountain," is located in the City Museum in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
How do rocks such as limestone and marble form?
Limestone - sedimentary deposition of calcarious marine organisms. Marble - compressed (metamorphosed) limestone.
Can marble be compressed?
If "a marble" refers the the glass marble popular with children? Then, yes, if enough pressure is used the glass marble will crumple into a fine powder. If the question refers to the rock known as marble, (which is a hard crystalline metamorphic form of limestone) then it is still possible to compress it. But, as to what effect? Marble is a type of limestone that has all ready been subjected to far more pressure than we could inflict on it.

What do you think it creates?? it dependes what type of rock it is but if its metamorphic rock, say, limestone, when its compressed it turns into marble

Is granite gneiss marble limestone shale or basalt an igneous rock?
These are sedimentary rocks. Sandstone is made of compressed grains of rock and sand. Shale is made of compressed bits of mud and clay. Limestone is made of compressed pieces of forms of calcium carbonate.
What was the first thing that happened to a marble rock?
Marble started out in a marine environment on the sea floor. It formed coral reefs, the remains of sea life especially the shell living creatures. Then it was buried under other sediments, and this continued for millions of years. During this time the reefs and shells became compressed and heated. Further pressure and heating changed the rock from limestones and chalks into marble. Eventually the tectonic movements of the earth caused the marble to be uplifted, then erosion removed the rocks over it and the marble was then exposed. Marble is metamorphosed limestone and chalk. It retains the original chemical formula of CaCO3 and the streaks that you often see in marble is due to other substances like iron that were in the original limestones and chalks.
What is the possessive of marble?
The possessive form of "marble" is "marble's." For example, you could say "the marble's surface" to indicate something that belongs to or relates to the marble.
Is a marble statue?
A marble statue is a statue made of marble :)
Does clay turn into limestone or marble?
Yes, over time, clay can be compressed and heated to form limestone, which is further metamorphosed to create marble through additional pressure and temperature changes. This transformation occurs over millions of years through the process of sedimentation, compaction, and metamorphism.
What does marble symbolize?
