Limestone is one of the most versatile stones available. In its pure form it is hard enough to be used in almost any application, however it is relatively soft compared to other building stones such as marble or granite.
Limestone is chiefly composed of calcium carbonate. It is a sedimentary rock, which means that it is formed by the collection of other minerals coming together to bond at a structural level. This most commonly occurs when lime builds up in oceans, then washes ashore and dries out.It is white in its purest form however impurities that become stuck in the structure during formation cause colorful streaks and shades to appear in its surface.
There are literally an unlimited number of colors limestone can come in due to the variety of impurities and the nature of their relationship to the forming stone. Iron will generally cause the colors in limestone to shift to red, or yellow, while carbon will shift the colors more towards grey or black. The erratic nature of the way the impurities join with the limestone, means that each piece of limestone is unique.
