Marble is one of the greatest gifts of nature. Inimitably precious and irresistibly intriguing, marble is perceived as the most precious material that fascinates with its distinctive characteristics, colors, patterns, texture and finesse. The formation of marble involves a series of complex strides and processes. It begins at the deepest quarters and crust of our planet Earth and ends with the execution of remarkable interior designs and décor concepts. From extraction to installation, turning raw marble into a masterpiece requires rigorous contemplation.
Admired and revered for its brilliant aesthetics and supreme grandeur, the marble formation begins with the phenomena within the crust entailing the fusion of various elements, energies and forces.
To enlighten you about the complexities, intricacies and practices from creation to finalization of marble into a stunning masterpiece, we bring to you a short sequential guide illustrating the entire process.
How Marble is Formed?
The formation occurs due to a reaction when limestone is subjected to intensive heat and pressure. The composition of marble consists of various minerals such as clay minerals, quartz, pyrite, micas, iron oxides and graphite, etc. but primarily the calcite. The phenomena of metamorphism involves recrystallization of calcite in the limestone leading to formation of rock that is a result of collective amalgamation of calcite crystals.
Extraction of Marble
Extraction process of marble is executed at the quarries in the rocky mountains. To perform efficient sourcing and carriage operations, professionals with tremendous expertise and highly sophisticated equipment are deployed. The pre-extraction arrangements also includes preparation for safety and preservation.
Processing of Marble
Post extraction, the blocks are sliced into smaller sizes with the help of special tools like diamond wire machine, hidrobags, stone crusher and drill, amongst others. The extracted stone is examined by on-site experts for assessment purpose that helps in identification of the quality of stone extracted and define factors for efficient utilization. In order to set parameters for effective utilization of the stone, the blocks are further cut into cubes or slabs and sent for storage loaded on heavy-duty vehicles.

Pre-dispatch Procedures
The vehicles with huge loading capacity are used for transportation of the material in large quantities to specific facilities depending upon the requirement for treatment or transformation into sheets.
The marble turned into slabs or sheets are further examined thoroughly for initiation of other imperative procedures like finishing, polishing and plastering for finalization of the same into an end deliverable. After detailed scrutiny and assessment, the marble is ready to be supplied to the market for selling.
