  2. Introduction • Infusion of an organic substance with non-organic stuff makes limestone quite different from other natural stones found in nature. Unique and different properties of limestone render it as industrially useful natural resources with diverse applications.

  3. Sedimentation • The evolution of life and living creatures has taken place under the sea water. These living creatures under the water were capable of forming calcium carbonates in different combination and properties.

  4. Formation of Fossils • Thus, calcites & aragonites became primary sources of the skeletons of the living creatures living in the sea and outside the water.

  5. Fossiliferous Limestone • The mingling of living creatures after their death with non-organic minerals resulted in sedimentary rocks with limestone.

  6. 2 Types of Fossils

  7. Classification of Fossiliferous Limestone • Shallow water deposits • Deep-sea deposits • Evaporative deposits • Freshwater deposits • Eolian deposits

  8. Grains or Granular Limestone • Granular design occurs naturally in limestone/calcite,and the primary causes are types of fossils embedded into the limestone during the sedimentation process.

  9. Non-granular Limestone • In the absence of fossil embedding in limestone, chemical precipitation of calcites or aragonite occurs.

  10. Types of Territorial Fossiliferous Limestone

  11. Fossiliferous Limestone in the Manufacturing Industry

  12. Fossiliferous Limestone in Chemical Industry

  13. Fossiliferous Limestone Usage in Construction Industry
