How much does marble cost per pound

It varies, as marble is sold by size, quality and availability and it goes by slab or tile for pricing.

Marble tiles (honed) sold at MarbleandGranite.com with the following dimensions: 2"x12" x 3/8" are priced from about $10.00 up to a little less that $70.00.

Marble slab countertops, on the other hand, cost $50-$100 per square foot and $1,500-$3,000 for a typical kitchen, according to CostHelper.com.

Marble is frequently imported from Italy, Spain and Mexico. A 2cm marble will weigh approximately 600-700 pounds per slab.

Marbles are calcium-based materials and are therefore susceptible to etching, staining, and scratching. Etching occurs when acids microscopically eat away at the surface of the stone, leaving dull spots in the material. This effect can be visually minimized by using a honed surface instead of a polished surface.
