Hunter Limestone

We were pleased to receive an early morning visit from our friends at SCE, courtesy of an Oz Landscape limestone order. The new Volvo 700 Hp is a Beauty!

TIMOR LIMESTONE - EQUINE CONNECTION
Horses need up to 40 litres of water a day! The Isis Valley ,just like Kentucky region ,has water that is very special for horses .It contains calcium carbonate from a rich Karst Limestone Member .
You drink milk because it has calcium in it, and calcium builds strong bones and teeth.
Hunter Lime understands how special it is to be located within the Timor limestone /karst .
That continues to this day to dissolves calcium rich minerals into the Isis river ,that flows gently thru some of the Upper Hunter and Australia’s most renowned and successful horse breeding nurseries.

Along with our equine neighbours , Hunter Lime is focused on providing calcium carbonate products to our many agricultural customers that recognise the proven benefits of calcium rich soils and animal health benefits .
