Limestone is used to refine beet sugars in Michigan. It's also used in gravel to make road ways and mixed with other materials to make concrete. Mining limestone also has environmental effects. It adds sediment and leaks gas & oil into the water table. This makes it unsafe for consumption. Mining limestone also causes habitat destruction since it is mined underground and the top soil is bulldozed.
