What is the metamorphosed form of dolomite?
The metamorphosed form of dolomite is called marble. Dolomite is a sedimentary rock primarily composed of the mineral dolomite, while marble is a metamorphic rock that forms from the recrystallization of limestone or dolomite under high heat and pressure.
Is dolomite limestone?
Dolomite is a mixture of calcium and magnesium carbonates. The ratio of Ca:Mg can vary. If the Ca percentage is very high (above 90%), it is generally considered as calcite and if Mg is very high, it is considered as magnesite (not magnetite). Theoretically, dolomite should have 50:50 Ca:Mg ratio. Usually, dolomite is slightly resistive against weathering and diluted acids compared to calcite.
How can you distinguish chemical limestone and dolostone?
Chemically, the distinction between limestone and dolostone is that the first one is chiefly composed of calcite, CaCO3, whereas the second is rich in MgCO3-Dolomite-. Therefore, the difference is limestone has Ca and Dolostone has Mg.Mg is replacing Ca in the dolostone, in other words.It is very difficult to make the distinction in a macro-scale samples. You will need optical or chemical procedures to differentiate each one.
What is a high specific gravity?
it is important because it helps determine what the mineral you are looking for is
What is the specific gravity of galena?
the specific gravity of galena is 7.4-7.6, so the average is 7.5

Do diabetics have a high or low specific gravity?
A person's glucose control is completely unrelated to his specific gravity.

What causes urine specific gravity to be high?
It is usually high with dehydration.
Why would a canned tomato puree with high specific gravity usually be more expensive than one with lower specific gravity?
It must be thickerer. Therefore, it must take more tomatoes to make the "high specific gravity" type.
What is specific gravity of high speed diesel?
8.5
who is manufacturing micronized Dolomite in India?
When the percentage of CaCO3 increases by 10% or more over the theoretical composition, the dolomite mineral is termed 'calcitic dolomite', 'high-calcium dolomite' or 'lime-dolomite'.With the decrease in the percentage of MgCO3, it is called 'dolomitic limestone'. With the variations of MgCO3 between five to 100 percent, it's referred to as 'magnesian limestone', and up to five MgCO3 or less it's taken to be the sedimentary rock for all purposes in trade and commercial parlance. Micronised Dolomite mineral typically contains impurities, chiefly silica, alumina, and iron oxide. For industrial functions, the percentage of combined impurities should not go beyond 7% above which, it becomes unsuitable for industrial use. It is then used just for road ballasts, building stones, flooring chips etc.

How in winter water can cause physical weathering of dolomite?
well if u have verry high water the dolomite will be low but if u water is low it wil have a high
