· Abstract. The use of limestone in the construction industry has been increasing due to benefits as aggregate. Some of these benefits include good strength, low possibility of alkali-silica reaction and the decrease in drying shrinkage in concrete. This research discusses the consumption and general characteristics of the limestone

· Alternatives to limestone for cement production are also proposed in (Zero Carbon Industry Plan, 2017), some even with potential of negative carbon emissions. However, switching to such alternatives are still farfetched, as the properties and durability of alternative compounds are still to be tested, both in laboratories and in real life applications.

Basics of mineral resources for cement production
The actual production of cement-grade limestone in different states, of course, follows the demand pattern of the cement industry, which has been showing an increasing trend. It is tentatively presumed that about 1.5 tons of limestone are required to produce 1 ton of plain Portland cement, and about 0.8 tons of limestone for every ton of blended cement.
