Limestone is a Sedimentary Rock Made up of the shells of millennia-old dead sea creatures Layers of these built up over millions of years and were squashed together until they formed Limestone. Limestone makes up about 10% of the total volume of Sedimentary Rocks The solubility of limestone in water and weak acid leads to a karst landscape, in which water erodes the limestone over the millions of years, most cave systems are through limestone bedrock The great pyramids of Egypt are, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, its outside cover is made from limestone
High Quality Quicklime of min. 90% CaCo3 with different grain size available: * 3-20 mm * 10-20 mm * 20-50 mm Packed in Jumbo Bags - seaworthy standing
Product description: Calcium oxide or quick lime is widely used versatile chemical compound, made from excellent deposit of high calcium limestone. High calcium lime is used for acid neutralization, flue gas treatment, as flux in metallurgical industry, in sugar refining etc.
Limestone (calcium carbonate CaCO3) is a type of carbonate sedimentary rock which is the main source of the material lime. It is composed mostly of the minerals calcite and aragonite, which are different crystal forms of CaCO3. Limestone forms when these minerals precipitate out of water containing dissolved calcium.
