Limestone

Source

Limestone is a sedimentary rock found in natural deposits around Egypt.

It can be gathered with:

• A Flint Hammer and Flint_Chisel (producing 1 limestone per hit), or
• A Heavy Mallet and a Lead Chisel (producing 3 limestone per hit).
• Limestone Auger is a steam machine, that will automatically gather Limestone and Soda.

With manual gathering, it's a good idea to bring multiple chisels when gathering limestone. Flint chisels have a tendency to shatter with use. Lead chisels also wear out, although they last much longer. Manually gathering limestone uses Endurance, so food that boosts End helps a lot. The Auger requires no fuel and can be stopped and start at leisure, so is highly recommended once the technology is available.

Use

• Source of Lime, from burning in a Firepit or Crematory.
• While gathering, you may also get Soda with a 20-25% chance per hit, as a byproduct.
