Best Answer

Limestone does not contain sodium chloride (NaCl)

It does contain calcium carbonate (CaCO2) and traces of MgCO2

No rock exposed to water contains sodium choride as the NaCl would wash out.

There are beds o strata of NaCl below grround which contain the salt from ancients seas/ These salt deposits are protected from the effects of water by layers of anhydrous rock over them.
