when impure dolostone or limestone is subjected to high temperature and pressure it will leads to formation of Wollastonite. Wollastonite is a Calcium silicate mineral (CaSiO3) that may contain small traces of other minerals like Iron, Magnesium, and Manganese substituting for Calcium which is available in many location below the ground surface. It is a versatile industrial mineral, find its applications in many engineering industries with its properties high brightness and whiteness. It has the property of low moisture and oil absorption with low volatile content. In this paper, various applications, research of Wollastonite in the field of civil engineering like concrete technology, geotechnical engineering, and also in various ceramics, construction materials are discussed. The feature scope of wallostonite has also been discussed.
