Does marble usually form due to contact metamorphism or regional metapmorphism?

Or both/either..?

Regional, as it is formed by placing limestone under pressure.

Contact metamorphism tends to be more heat driven.

Mostly regional. Rarely contact.

Either, but regional will produce larger quantities.
