- Nóta The product resulting from this relatively low-temperature calcination is highly porous and reactive and is known as calcined dolomite or simply doloma or dolime (i.e., CaO + MgO). Like lime, most dolime is produced either in vertical shaft kilns (Europe and UK) or rotary kilns (USA). Dolime is used in the extractive metallurgy of magnesium metal by the silicothermic process.
