Hence, since marble is formed from limestone, it concludes that marble is a metamorphosed rock formed from a previously existing limestone rock. Also, since Calcite, a precursor of limestone that marble is formed from can be degraded by acids, both limestone and marble which are formed from it will also be dissolvable by acids.
