Solution

The correct answer is D. All of them.

Here's why:

A. Limestone: It is a sedimentary rock composed primarily of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the form of the mineral calcite.

B. Gypsum: It is a soft sulfate mineral composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO4·2H2O).

C. Dolomite: It is an anhydrous carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (CaMg(CO3)2).

So, all of them (Limestone, Gypsum, Dolomite) are ores of calcium.
