HISTORY and OVERVIEW

Calcite is a rock forming mineral that is extremely common.  It's found throughout the world in sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks.  Some geologists consider Calcite to be a "ubiquitous mineral", one that is found everywhere. 

Calcite is one of the most widely used minerals, used in construction, as an abrasive, agricultural soil treatment, pigment, pharmaceutical and more.

Aragonite will change to calcite within days at temperatures exceeding 300 °C.

May be banded (white, cream to brown streaks) and a chalky or waxy texture.  The banded variety is called Green Banded Calcite and non banded is called Pistachio Calcite, they can be very difficult to distinguish if the bands are wide and you have a piece of green calcite that just happens to have been cut without the banding on it.
