A city of west-central Germany in the Ruhr Valley north of Essen. First mentioned in the ninth century, it is now highly industrialized. Population: 87,231. Earthy mixture of fine-grained minerals, which range widely in composition. Lime (calcium carbonate) is present as shell fragments of snails and bivalves, or as powder mixed with clay and silica-containing silt. Large deposits contain 80-90% calcium carbonate and less than 3% magnesium carbonate. With decreasing amounts of lime, calcium-containing marls are called clays and clayey limestones. Marls rich in potash (potassium carbonate), called greensand marls, are used as water softeners. Marls have also been used in the manufacture of insulating material and portland cement, as liming material, and in making bricks
A loose earthy deposit containing a substantial amount of calcium carbonate; used for soils deficient in lime
To wrap a small line around another
an unconsolidated deposit of calcium carbonate mixed with clay, usually formed in freshwater lakes, but also deposited by decomposing algae in very alkaline wetlands
To cover, as part of a rope, with marline, marking a pecular hitch at each turn to prevent unwinding
To overspread or manure with marl; as, to marl a field

A calcareous clay or mudstone
Friable mixture of subequal amounts of micrite and clay minerals
{i} soil which consists mostly of calcium-rich clay and has fertilizing properties
White to gray accumulation on lake bottoms caused by precipitation of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in hard water lakes Marl may contain many snail and clam shells, which are also calcium carbonate While it gradually fills in lakes, marl also precipitates phosphorus, resulting in low algae populations and good water clarity In the past, marl was recovered and used to lime agricultural fields
A prominent soil found in many parts of South Jersey, comprised of glaucomite, clay, sand, and marine fossils
A calcareous clay, or impure fine grained limestone
- A form of clay rich in calcium carbonate
