Does temperature affect Marble

446 Views    107 Likes

Yes, temperature can affect marble. Marble is a type of metamorphic rock that forms from the sedimentary rock limestone. Marble is made up of calcium carbonate, which is sensitive to high temperatures. If exposed to extreme heat, marble can expand and crack, leading to damage or even breakage. Additionally, high temperatures can cause natural veins or patterns in the marble to become more pronounced. However, the effects of temperature on marble are generally minimal unless the temperature is extremely high or fluctuates rapidly.
