The remains are called fossils. Fossils are remnants of animals, plants, or microorganisms that have been solidified in the process of fossilization, where the organism is surrounded by sediment, minerals, and other solid objects which are compressed and heated around the organism over time. This forms a solid mass with the preserved organism inside, other known as a fossil.

It is a sedimentary rock composed of calcite and aragonite. It is used as a building material mainly because it is easily available and easy to work with.
Limestone is used in the manufacture of steel as it is the primary raw material that helps to remove impurities from the iron ore and produces waste matter that has low melting point and viscosity
