📜 Key facts

AgeVaries by deposit
Origin & sourcesMexico, Brazil and the USA.
CompositionTranslucent golden-brown calcite, coloured by traces of iron (CaCO₃, Mohs 3).

How it forms

Calcite crystallizes from carbonate-rich water in veins, caves and cavities, or forms masses in sediment. Trace elements and inclusions give its many colours. It is soft, fizzes in dilute acid and dissolves slowly in water, so keep it dry.
