Calcium magnesium carbonate
Calcium magnesium carbonate defines dolomite CaMg(CO₃)₂, while limestone is calcium carbonate CaCO₃. Both minerals extracted from Peroglio quarries are pure and chemically stable, ideal for industrial, food, and construction applications.
As a producer of calcium magnesium carbonate and micronized minerals for industry and construction, Peroglio also offers a wide range of aggregates for cementitious and bituminous mixtures, railway ballast, lime kilns, roadworks, bound and unbound materials, foundations, and armorstones.
Minerals extracted from our quarries
Dolomite
Double calcium and magnesium carbonate
Dolomite extracted from the Costa Alta quarry in Carpanè is a particularly pure form of calcium magnesium carbonate CaMg(CO₃)₂, prized for its exceptional chemical stability.
Calcium carbonate CaCO₃
Limestone
Calcium carbonate CaCO₃ extracted from the Monte Sei Busi quarry in Fogliano Redipuglia is one of the chemically purest limestones, with a purity of 99.5%–99.9%.
