Resumen
This work involved the characterization and analysis of the stratigraphic and structural parameters of a limestone deposit located in Bandeirantes-Tocantins, with the objective of providing a comparative reference with other similar carbonate occurrences in the region. Limestone is a mineral amendment widely used in restoring poor soils and correcting the pH of acidic soils. The state of Tocantins has large reserves of limestone, which has encouraged industries and companies in the region. The use of limestone in agriculture is essential to increase productivity in acidic soils. The work seeks to identify impurities in the extracted limestone, characterize the local lithostratigraphic unit, explore the methods of use of the final product and contribute to the development of the region. The study involved a literature review and consultation of various sources of information on the formation of carbonate rock deposits and the characteristics of the deposit in question.
