Limestone and Chalk. Limestone is a sedimentary rock consisting principally of the mineral calcite (calcium carbonate) and is widely distributed in Alabama. The limestones of Alabama have a wide variety of chemical and physical properties and have been used for various purposes throughout human history in the region.
Limestone is by definition a rock that contains at least 50% calcium carbonate in the form of calcite by weight. All limestones contain at least a few percent other materials. These can be small particles of quartz, feldspar, clay minerals, pyrite, siderite and other minerals.t is usually an organic sedimentary rock that forms from the accumulation of shell, coral, algal and fecal debris. It can also be a chemical sedimentary rock formed by the precipitation of calcium carbonate from lake or ocean water. Most limestones form in shallow, calm, warm marine waters.
