Preliminary investigations into the calcinations of lime sands from Eyre Peninsula, South Australia are described in this report. The material as mined has a chemical composition suitable for lime production without prior beneficiation. Usual commercial practice is to calcine crushed limestone in a much coarser form than granular lime sand. A recommendation for future work in developing equipment specifically for burning lime sands is made.
