Howdy,

Marble is the same temperature as the kitchen <g>. It feels "cool to
the touch" because it conducts heat well and your hand it likely to be
warmer than the marble. I am no physicist, but would certainly believe
that any stone would do the same (within limits of kitchen measurement
accuracy).

All the best,
