Limestone

Overview

Limestone is the sedimentary rock the building materials industry is built on: raw material for cement and lime, aggregate and flux.

Made up mainly of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃), limestone is valued for its chemical purity and for how readily it can be crushed and graded. Its CaCO₃ content and size fraction determine where it can be used, from cement raw meal to road aggregates.

Limestone is supplied by size fraction, with chemical parameters confirmed by analysis.

Applications

  • Raw material for cement and lime
  • Aggregate for concrete and roads
  • Flux in steelmaking
  • Flue gas desulfurisation
  • Amendment for acidic soils
  • Glass and sugar industries
