dolostone (magnesian limestone, <limestone by composition: aggregate type>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: A type of limestone having calcium carbonate content approaching 45%; employed as a flux in melting iron, as a lining for basic steel furnaces, for the production of magnesium metal, for filtering, and as a construction stone. |
