  Marble 
  

  

  The 
  granular 
  crystalline 
  limestones 
  and 
  dolomites 
  classed 
  as 
  

   marble 
  are 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  metamorphosed 
  areas 
  of 
  the 
  Adirondacks 
  

   and 
  southeastern 
  New 
  York. 
  A 
  few 
  varieties 
  of 
  compact, 
  non- 
  

   crystalline 
  limestones, 
  such 
  as 
  the 
  black 
  limestone 
  of 
  the 
  Trenton 
  

   formation 
  occurring 
  at 
  Glens 
  Falls 
  and 
  the 
  fossiliferous 
  Chazy 
  

   limestone 
  along 
  Lake 
  Champlain, 
  possess 
  ornamental 
  qualities 
  

   that 
  fit 
  them 
  for 
  special 
  uses 
  and 
  pass 
  as 
  marble 
  in 
  the 
  trade. 
  

  

  The 
  monumental 
  marble 
  is 
  obtained 
  principally 
  in 
  the 
  vicinity 
  

   of 
  Gouverneur, 
  St 
  Lawrence 
  co., 
  where 
  a 
  large 
  quarry 
  and 
  pol- 
  

   ishing 
  industry 
  has 
  been 
  established 
  for 
  many 
  years. 
  The 
  stone 
  

   has 
  a 
  coarse 
  crystalline 
  texture, 
  a 
  color 
  varying 
  from 
  white 
  to 
  

   mottled 
  white 
  and 
  gray, 
  often 
  quite 
  dark 
  gray, 
  and 
  takes 
  a 
  lus- 
  

   trous 
  polish. 
  As 
  only 
  the 
  best 
  of 
  the 
  quarry 
  material 
  can 
  be 
  

   used 
  for 
  monumental 
  work, 
  the 
  poorer 
  grades 
  are 
  dressed 
  into
