That is a complicated function of:
- height/depth of burst
- distance from burst
- neutron flux density and spectrum
- thermal pulse
- overcast, if airburst
- density, etc. of material around burst, if subsurface burst
- mechanical condition of marble prior to burst
- chemical impurities in marble
- etc.
Without more data than is given in your question, no real answer can be given. I would suggest doing some research yourself on nuclear weapons effects.
A good place to start is "The Effects of NUCLEAR WEAPONS" Edited by Samuel Glasstone. I have a copy of the 1964 edition with the weapons effects circular sliderule that I paid half a dollar for at a library discards sale (the sliderule alone is worth well over 20 times that, even though my book has damage seriously reducing its value on the market). If your library doesn't have it, request it on interlibrary loan. (I don't think you can get the sliderule anymore though)

It would probably light up like a piece of coal and burn. Diamond burns quite well.
What happens when two bombs collide?
This question makes no sense as an atomic bomb is a nuclear bomb and vice versa. They are the same thing.
When was the first controlled nuclear explosion in the US?
Nuclear explosions are not controlled. Nuclear reactors are controlled.The first controlled nuclear reaction in the US was on December 2, 1942.The first nuclear explosion in the US was on July 16, 1945.
