These are periods in the geologic timescale, spanning from 145 million years ago (Cretaceous) to 443 million years ago (Ordovician). Each period represents a distinct time in Earth's history characterized by specific events and changes in life forms, such as the extinction of dinosaurs in the Cretaceous period or the diversification of marine life in the Ordovician period.

Cretaceous limestone is a type of sedimentary rock formed during the Cretaceous period, approximately 145 to 66 million years ago. It is made up of predominantly calcium carbonate minerals derived from the remains of marine organisms such as corals, shells, and algae. Cretaceous limestone is often used as a building material and in the production of cement.
