Question

Ajit is interested in sculpting. He wants to prepare a sculpture of Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam. He cannot decide which rock he should use for this, igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic? What will be your advice?

Answer 1

• Ajit should use a metamorphic rock, especially marble, to sculpt Dr A. P. J. Abdul Kalam.
• Marble is strong, durable, easy to carve, and can be polished smoothly. Therefore, it is well suited for making detailed sculptures.
