Limestone. Limestone is a carbonate sedimentary rock that consists predominantly of calcite [CaCO 3 ]. Limestones are the commonest rocks that contain non-silicate minerals as primary components and, even if they represent only a fraction of all sedimentary rocks (about 20 – 25%), their study is fundamental to understand past environments

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. This can take place

Calcite is the most abundant carbonate on Earth. It is one of the forms of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) and its name derives from the Latin word for lime, calx, and the related German word calcit.
