We are offering lime stones.
Limestone is quarried for roadbeds, building and landscape construction, and cement manufacture. Limestone is especially popular in architecture, and many landmarks around the world, especially in north america and europe , are made primarily of the material. Limestone is readily available and relatively easy to cut into blocks or more elaborate carving. It is also long-lasting and stands up well to exposure. However, it is a very heavy material, making it impractical for tall buildings; it is also quite expensive. Most limestone used in construction comes from india .
Though the limestone used for construction is good for humid climates, it is vulnerable to acids, making acid rain a problem when it occurs in places where limestone is used extensively. The acids in the water can wear away the details of statues and other art.
