Abstract

The reactivity of four limestones with increasing CaO and decreasing MgO contents was evaluated by incubating the limestones with three different soils. The results showed that the reactivity of the limestones in neutralizing soil acidity was not influenced by its carbonate forms, that is, calcium or magnesium.
