I think it's not renewable because if we use all the limestone in the world we wont have any left to know how to make it on our own, but it may be renewable cause it is made from our planet Earth.

Why is limestone a non renewable resource?
Yes it is because it takes a long time to form (Redirected from Renewable resources)Jump to: navigation, searchA natural resource qualifies as a renewable resource if it is replenished by natural processes at a rate comparable or faster than its rate of consumption by humans. Solar radiation, tides, winds and hydroelectricity are perpetual resourcesthat are in no danger of long-term availability. Renewable resources may also mean commodities such as wood, paper, and leather, if harvesting is performed in a sustainable manner. Limestone is considered to be a nonrenewable resource because the amount of time taken to form the limestone used is much longer than the rate at which humans use it. This is essentially the same concept as with oil- that is, oil can in fact be replenished, but the amount of time it takes is unreasonable is comparison to usage.
