i think its thermal decomposition
Yes, with sufficient heating, calcium carbonate will decompose into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.

Calcium Carbonate :)
If CaCO3 (calcium carbonate) were to decompose, it would likely result in CaO (calcium oxide) and CO2 (carbon dioxide).
High thermal Stability
It releases a gas of CO2 and the solid formed is a poo.
Calcium oxide
The scientific name of marble is calcium carbonate, which is a mineral composed mainly of calcium and carbonate ions.
group 1 metal carbonates do not decompose
Calcium
Calcium Carbonate - also called limestone, calcite, chalk, and marble.
1000 degrees C, decomposing into CaO(s) and CO2(g)
