Where should the section Scarcity be added?
I added a new section related to the scarcity of limestone. I put it as a sub topic to uses as it was more closely related to the construction aspect. However, I also wondered about having it placed under occurrence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Annawood2 (talk • contribs) 20:19, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * "Scarcity" is a human economic concept. I think where you put it is fine. --Kent G. Budge (talk) 20:57, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Mineral resources
Limestone is a common type of carbonate sedimentary rock. It is composed mostly of the minerals calcite and aragonite, which are different crystal forms of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ). Limestone forms when these minerals precipitate out of water containing dissolved calcium. This can take place through both biological and nonbiological processes, though biological processes have likely been more important for the last 540 million years.[1] Limestone often contains fossils, and these provide scientists with information on ancient environments and on the evolution of life.[2] 2409:4072:E90:77CD:7E02:5556:765E:427 (talk) 09:28, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
