Dolomitic lime Use and Manufacturing
light green. Glass gloss. Hardness 3.5-4.0. Density 2.8-2.9. Cleavage parallel rhombohedral and complete. It slowly foams in the presence of cold hydrochloric acid. In the metallurgical industry, it is used as an alkaline refractory material and blast furnace iron-making flux; partly used to extract metal magnesium; it can also be used to make calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer, magnesium sulfate, etc.; in addition, it can also be used as an ingredient for ceramics and glass. Dolomite is a carbonate rock composed mainly of dolomite. Often
