Can some information please be provided on the toxicity (or lack thereof) of limescale and related chemicals? Or perhaps a link could be provided to such information --Mydoghasworms 06:44, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

For that matter, maybe someone could say about any of the problems associated with any of it? (If I happen to find anything, I'll still be too busy to write it up tonight, sorry) --195.92.168.164 02:13, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Correction needed?[edit]

"Calcium salts, such as calcium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate are both more soluble in hot water than cold water"

Calcium Carbonate is actually more soluble in cold water:

Useful Applications?[edit]

Has there been any experimenting or studies done to show that this mineral is useful in any way? Because I don't see it in the article. 68.190.116.202 (talk) 11:21, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Eifel marble[edit]

There are also small quarries in Roderath and Kall-Urft. The natural stone from these quarries has been sometimes also called "Eifelmarmor". The more correct term therefore would be "Äquaduktenmarmor" (aequaduct marble). The German wiki entry claims a thickness of the layer up to 30 centimeters [[1]]. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:E5:173E:5E48:51CE:41E3:71CD:577F (talk) 09:46, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
