What are slimy deposits at the bottom of the ocean?
The bottom of the ocean that is slimy is called a biogenous bottom. Some scientists refer to this kind of ocean bottom as an ooze. They are the result of a dominance of calcium shells and siliceous shell pieces which dissolve at the bottom of the ocean.

What is the difference between calcareous ooze and siliceous ooze?
Calcareous ooze is composed of calcium carbonate, while siliceous ooze is made from silicon oxide.
To which Limestone called siliceous Limestone?
The rock tripoli is considered a siliceous limestone, as most of the calcium carbonate has been weathered out or baked out by proximity to a plutonic intrusion.
