Marble is actually a product coming from the transformation process of a buried limestone in an environment of high pressure and excess temperature. What you see on the surface today used to be buried underneath while a high T zone will trigger the process of recrystallization. Tectonic forces will later force these blocks to ascent back to surface (orogenesis) as like earth wants to show off the beauty of our planet

@Rikard416 2 года назад

is it possible to create marble from limestone artificially then? That would make it so much cheaper

@pcblah 2 года назад

@@Rikard416 I feel like that would make it so much more expensive. I mean, look at the equipment they're using here. Now go up an order of magnitude if you want to make a pressure vessel capable of handling both high temps and pressures required to basically *squish* stone. We have the tech to make small artificial diamonds, sure, but we aren't exactly going to throw an entire GDP at the wall to make big artificial diamonds, let alone marble slabs.

Oh my...I had no clue you found marble in quantities like this!! That's blowing my mind. Now on a mission to find out how marble is formed in nature.

@mushieslushie 2 года назад

Really its just rock, its just made out of limestone vs other minerals. We have a lot of Granite quarries in my area, but they are nowhere near as big as this. There is also an old limestone quarry but I guess it's not marbleized.

@tuscanland 2 года назад

Sea shells piling up at the bottom of the sea, plate tectonics, pressure compacting the enormous pile of sea shells into a submarine mountain of marble. Eventually, due to the African continent plowing its way towards Europe, the under sea mountains came up above the surface, and that's the result. It's a pitty and a shame in my opinion. This is utter destruction of a pristine environment. Fascinating to see and sad at the same time.

@tuscanland 2 года назад

@@ColdPillowz It would have been a pristine environment if the quarry was never there. When it rains rivers of white milky water flow down the side of the hills. Marble dust everywhere. The destruction I'm referring to is in that the side of the mountains are being eaten away. Once they are gone, they are gone for good. I bet they won't stop until it's a flat land.

Greece has no space for larger facilities and especially not large scale industries. They need every surface for farming so they can feed their population. Greece is very mountainous, so everything is going to be a lot more difficult. Tourism and trading are the key parts of Greek economy. Although the trading part is mostly imports, or transfering goods from one to another market. Politicians fucked up the trading part especially, because they didnt tax ship owning compenies, and rich people,... and well, they even didnt bother to tax ordinary people, too. A lot has changed in Greece by now. I hope they will recover, but these are hard times. Pandemic is going to ruin the other key part of Greek economy. And on the other hand, Greece has great ressources in the sea, but if they are going to extract them, Turkey is going to get mad.
