MARBLE
The term “Marble” is derived from the Latin word Murmur which in turn is said to have been coined from Greek word Marmorous, meaning shining stone. It is known for its pleasant colours, smooth and uniform texture, moderate hardness, amenability to be quarried into big blocks, smooth & shiny polished surface and silky feel. Marble occupies a unique position among other dimension stones because of its aesthetic value.
In terms of geological definition, it is a metamorphosed limestone produced by re-crystallisation under the conditions of thermal and regional metamorphism. In commercial parlance, all calcareous rocks capable of taking polish are classed as marbles.
Rajasthan has the distinction of having the best among Indian resources of good quality marble. Out of 33 districts, 20 districts have marble in one or the other form.
USES OF MARBLE
Marble is used widely in buildings, monuments and sculptures. Its utility value lies in its beauty, strength and resistance to fire and erosion. Marble has its application in interior and exterior wall cladding, interior and exterior paving, fireplace facing and hearth, lavatory tops, residential and commercial counter tops, table tops, statues and novelty items.
Different marble varieties are used basically as both interior and exterior vertical wall cladding and flooring. Their use as structural elements (masonry), statues, epitaphs, graves, etc. is quantitatively less with funeral art accounting for the largest percentage.
In interior applications such as, for floors, marble is used in the form of 20 mm thick cut-to-size slabs. The slabs are also used for interior and outer facings, stairs, table tops, kitchen platforms, etc. The tiles in sizes ranging from 10 x 10 cm to 60 x 60 cm are used for floors, dadoes and for skirting in thickness ranging from 10 to 20 mm.
The selected marble blocks free from cracks and other inclusions are used for making artifacts, such as, carved figures, handrails and balustrade for staircases, jalis, fire places, flower vases and many other pieces of art.
