Natural limestone is calcareous sedimentary rocks formed at the bottom of lakes and seas with the accumulation of shells, bones and other calcium rich goods. It is composed of calcite (CaCO3). The organic matter upon which it settles in lakes or seas, are preserved as fossils. Over thousands and millions of years, layer after layer is built up adding weight. The heat and pressure causes chemical reaction at the bottom and the sediments turn into solid stone, the limestone.
The rock which contains more than 95% of calcium carbonate is known as high-calcium limestone.
Recrystallised limestone takes good polish and is usually used as decorative and building stone.
A part of calcium molecules if being replaced by magnesium, it is known as magnesium lime stone or dolomite limestone. Limestone that will take a polish are considered marbles by most people, but technically, if there are still shells visible or the structure is not crystalline, it is still a limestone.
Limestone is extremely useful for construction purposes; limestone tiles are used widely in constructing limestone flooring, limestone fireplaces and limestone countertops. Limestone fireplace is growing to be more and more popular home fire surrounds. White limestone and Black limestone are among its most common forms, owing to its durability and unique beauty limestone tile is becoming a preferred choice for flooring.
