What is the difference between limestone and cement? Is it a mine?
The main component of limestone is calcium carbonate CaCO3, limestone is a single component containing calcite rock, calcite components accounted for 95%, which contains a small amount of minerals and clay minerals, siderite, dolomite, feldspar, quartz and mica can reflect the color of the stone.
The pure limestone is white. Limonite and siderite make the limestone produce a pattern and color of brown, such as red blood, sea green, chlorite green, asphalt ash until black. Produced from the sea of limestone from the physical change animal and plant debris, mud and calcareous skeletons in the water organic matter and other components. After the death of the organic matter, the carbonate is dissolved in seawater and accumulates on the sea floor. When the limestone is cut, it is found that there are intact or destroyed fossils inside the stone. The main component of cement limestone mine is silicate.
Calcium carbonate is the main component of limestone mine. The main component of cement limestone mine is silicate.
