Hi Caman,
Much of the information about saints you see on this site is from the Coptic Synaxarium, which is the way of recording the lives of the saints. You can find the entry for St. Mark here: http://www.copticchurch.net/synaxarium/8_30.html#1 Information about the Synaxarium: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaxarium Also there are some more entries in the Synaxarium about St. Mark, related to his relics, etc.
