EISCO Chalk Limestone Specimen (Sedimentary Rock), Approx. 1" (3cm) - Pack of 12

Limestone is made up of organic material, mostly calcium carbonate. The chalk variety is made up of the shells of coccolithophores, small platy animals that stack together and powder easily. Large layers of chalk indicate a low-oxygen environment, most likely the bed of an ancient seafloor.
