CaMg(CO3)2Calcium And Magnesium Carbonate
is an anhydrous carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate, ideally CaMg(CO3)2. The term is also used for a sedimentary carbonate rock composed mostly of the mineral dolomite. An alternative name sometimes used for the dolomitic rock type is dolostone.

Great purity
Dolomite is used as a source of magnesium metal and of magnesia (MgO), which is a constituent of refractory bricks. Dolostone is often used instead of limestone as an aggregate for both cement and bitumen mixes and also as a flux in blast furnaces.
APPLICATIONDOLOMITE APPLICATION SECTORS
IRON AND STEEL INDUSTRY
The main uses of dolomite in iron and steel industry are as a fluxing material for protection of refractory lining.
GLASS AND CERAMICS
For the production of E-glass, C-glass or ECR-glass - increase the performance and capacity of glass melting tanks for glass fibres.
METALLURGY
In steel making dolomite would be used as flux and in iron making dolomite would be used for production of fluxed sinter.
ANIMAL FEED
Animals need calcium carbonate for bone development, nerve function and to produce milk and eggs.
SLUDGE TREATMENT
It has great potential in ammonium and phosphate precipitation from agricultural sludges and the precipitates could be used as recycled fertilizers.
WATER TREATMENT
It has great potential in ammonium and phosphate precipitation from synthetic waters and the precipitates could be used as recycled fertilizers.

LIST OF ALLFrequently Asked Questions
What is dolomite used for?
Dolomite is used as a source of magnesia (MgO), a feed additive for livestock, a sintering agent and flux in metal processing, and as an ingredient in the production of glass, bricks, and ceramics. Dolomite serves as the host rock for many lead, zinc, and copper deposits.
Is dolomite the same as limestone?
Limestone is a calcium carbonate mineral whereas dolomite is made of calcium magnesium carbonate. Sand, clay and silt are commonly found in limestone as impurities but not quite common in dolomite. Calcite limestone is usually more expensive than dolomite.
Where is dolomite powder used?
Dolomite powder is an anhydrous carbonate mineral which comprises calcium magnesium carbonate. This powder is used in applications such as steel-making, cement manufacturing, agriculture, ceramics, glass, rubber, and mining.
