Calcium carbonate is a substance
naturally found in rocks and in shells of marine organisms, coal balls, snails,
eggshells and pearls. It is also a major ingredient in agricultural lime and
also used as an antacid or calcium supplement in medical applications. There
are two chief sources from which calcium carbonate can be obtained. Calcite,
aragonite, vaterite, limestone, marble, travertine and chalks are key
geological sources of calcium carbonate. Biological sources include oyster
shells, eggshells, snail shells, and most of the sea shells.
