Dolomite:-
Named in 1791 by Nicolas Théodore de Saussure in honour of the French mineralogist and geologist, Déodat (Dieudonné) Guy Sylvain Tancrède Gratet de Dolomieu. He discovered a specimen of what would eventually be called dolomite during his participation in Napoleon Bonaparte's expedition into Egypt in 1798.\n \nDolomite is usually found as druzes or clusters of small rhombohedral crystals with a somewhat "saddle"-like shape, white to tan to pink in colour or in massive outcrops of low grade material. Dolomite, also known as dolomitic limestone, magnesian limestone, or dolostone, is a sedimentary rock composed of Calcium and Magnesium Carbonate It forms through the process of dolomitization, where Calcium Carbonate, or Limestone undergoes partial or full transformation.
Dolomite rock is quarried, crushed, and ground into various fractions for diverse applications. It is widely used in agriculture to improve soil quality, in refractories due to its magnesium content, and in the paint and plastics industries as a filler material.
