Here is the corrected text: Raw Calcite Specimen - Single Sample, 1" Calcite, composed of calcium carbonate, can form into rocks, animal shells, chalk, and translucent, rhombic minerals. As one of the few minerals that effervesce in acid, calcite is ideal for demonstrating chemical reactions. This versatile mineral can also be used to demonstrate mineral hardness, light refraction, and cleavage. While each specimen will vary slightly in shape, size, and color, it will measure approximately 1" in length. Each is individually packaged, labeled, and barcoded for easy identification and storage.
