ABSTRACT: The lacustrine limestones of Miocene outcrop in the west of Güney town of denizli. Flüvial fan,sandstone and mudstone deposits of allüvial fan underlying lacustrine limesstones. 10 to 15 m thickbedded massive limestones are grey, beige, white, thick layered, karstic which are filled with calcite. As aresult of major oxide analyses 0.8-1.7. %SiO , 0. 3 %Al O , 0. 1-0.2 %Fe O , 0.5-0.9 % MgO, 52-55%CaO, and 42.9-43.6 % LOI. Low amount of heavy metals (Hg, Ni, Cr, Pb, As, Cd, Cu, Mo, Zn, Sb, Se,Sc)and radioactive elements were observed in the analysis of trace and detailed NTE.2 23 23Because of micritic matrix, the limestone produces well plates with its good edges and corners noshowing fragmentation and producing regular cutting surfaces except cavities holes. The rock cansuccesfully be polished. The limestone has a unit weight of 24.73 kN/m3, water absorption by weight of1.54%, effective porosity 5%, dry uniaxial compressive strength is 85.8 Mpa, weight loss due to freezethaw of 0.05, Böhme abrasion resistance of 0.74 cm/50 cm . No indication of oxidation is on the rockdetected. Limestone with low effective porosity and water absorption can be used as a natural buildingstone.
