Such is the story of an Arkansas man who drank so much iced tea that it led him to develop kidney failure. Three Arkansas doctors described the case in a letter published by the New England Journal of Medicine this week.
What is Marble? Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms when limestone is subjected to the heat and pressure of metamorphism. It is composed primarily of the mineral calcite (CaCO3) and usually contains other minerals, such as clay minerals, micas, quartz, pyrite, iron oxides, and graphite.
Marble is often named after the location of the quarry, such as Egyptian Marble, Parian Marble from Greece, Carrara Marble from Italy, Proconnesus Marble from Turkey, Macael Marble from Spain, Makrana marble from India, Danby Marble from Vermont, and Yule Marble from Colorado.arble is often named after the location of the quarry, such as Egyptian Marble, Parian Marble from Greece, Carrara Marble from Italy, Proconnesus Marble from Turkey, Macael Marble from Spain, Makrana marble from India, Danby Marble from Vermont, and Yule Marble from Colorado.
