Calcite(Cat No.:M063175), is a mineral form of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). It is one of the most common minerals on Earth and has a wide range of applications. Calcite is a major component of limestone and marble, essential in construction and sculpture. Its optical properties make it valuable in the production of optical instruments, polarizing microscopes, and optical coatings. In geology, calcite’s presence can indicate past environmental conditions. Its unique properties, including birefringence, have led to its use in diverse fields, from architecture and geology to optics and materials science.
