Number of Limestone resource nodes is as follows:
| Type | Number | Rate Mk.3 | Rate Mk.3 at 250 % |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impure | 12 | 1440 | 3600 |
| Normal | 47 | 11280 | 28200 |
| Pure | 27 | 12960 | 32400 |
| Total | 86 | 25680 | 52860* / 64200 |
*Note: The extraction rate of a Miner Mk.3 at 250 % is 1200/min, but a Mk.5 Conveyor can only carry 780/min, therefore the maximum mined amount cannot be transported.
