The total CaO figure is withheld. The eight oxide values published with it summed to 107.11%, which is not a possible analysis, and the CaO line is the one that cannot stand: 67.76% CaO alongside a 13.22% loss on ignition describes a clinker, not a Portland-limestone cement. Rather than correct a figure nobody has authorised, the line is left out and will be published from the producing mill's own certificate of analysis.
