Dolomite

Dolomite manufactured and supplied by us is commonly found in deposits of a sedimentary rock called dolostone. There are two types of materials often called dolomite, a true chemically uniform calcium magnesium carbonate and a dolomitic limestone, which is just an irregular mixture of calcium and magnesium carbonates. Dolomite is harder and denser than the calcite form of calcium carbonate or limestone, and is more chemically inert and more impervious to acid attack.
