[QUOTE="Coximus, post: 8191403, member: 12800"] Interestingly I got a scoop of lime slurry for free last week, its drying out under cover now - Its from a limestone quarry that washes their 20mm and 10mm aggregates for the concreting market, so all the fines are removed and the dust is all water borne so typically 0.65mm down, infact it feels like talc when dry and clay when wet, as its the water suspended fraction. Its normally landfilled as its a bright white sticky clay - I asked why they done sell it as a premium Lime and they said its the weeks it takes to dry and when dry its so fine it covers everything in dust in a slight breeze. Now that would be some amazing lime. [/QUOTE]
