First stain on white marble

One third of my kitchen island, the lower part, is a Thassos white marble. Every time I have tried to photograph it, the marble appears like a paper white solid. In reality, it has some pale, pale gray wisps in it. Nothing I have done to it for the past three years has left a stain--until now. I've had a Cuisinart food processor sitting on it since Thanksgiving. One of the black rubber feet left a 1/2 inch gray stain on the marble. Only I would notice it as it matches the gray wisps. I recognize it because the shape isn't a wisp and corresponds to the foot; also, it's in a spot that had no wisps before, right where I roll out dough. It looks like the marble somehow incorporated the stain, as though the stain is below the surface. I honestly don't care and am not about to do anything about it, but I thought some of the people who have been asking about whether marble stains would want to know.
