About
Lime can be found rarely on the ground, but is more commonly obtained by Chipping a Lime Boulder with Any Axe or Any Pickaxe. Alternatively a Lime Boulder can be crushed in a Stamp Mill or blown up with a Lit Boomstick. Selecting a Lime and right-clicking it on a Vessel of Potable Water will make Milk of Lime, used in making Clay or Limed Hides. Lime counts as Any Stone in recipes. Lime can be stored in a Stockbin.
From left to right, 100x, 25x, 15x, 10x and 5x Lime pieces.
With the Quarrying Skill learned, and Any Shovel equipped, you can Dig Lime Boulders from a Lime Pit. Lime Boulders come in variable sizes, with the bigger Lime Boulders giving more Lime when Chipped, ranging from 5 up to 100. The size of your Lime Boulder is based on chance, your Mines & Mountains Proficiency, and whether or not you have learned the Ambitious Excavation Skill. Rarely you will Dig up a very small Lime Boulder. Chipping this Lime Boulder will give you a single Little Limestone. When used in place of Lime in a Ore Smelter, a Little Limestone will increase the number of Bar of Any Metal that are produced. Each Lime Boulder Dug from a Lime Pit will lower the terrain slightly. If the terrain is too step you will be unable to Dig further, making it possible to exhaust a Lime Pit of Lime.
