The calcite stone (stands for Latin calx >> lime) is very common in nature (in the earth’s crust). Calcite is a coveted mineral in the pharmaceutical industry because of its high calcium content. The particularly high calcium content should play a major role as a remedy for the bones.
However, the stone is also used for the production of building materials, fertilizers and paints. Calcite has a rare feature – a double refraction.
As a result, pure calcite crystals are also used in the optical industry. Its low hardness, however, makes it unusable for use as a pure gemstone. Sometimes calcite is honed in cabochon or smooth cut. As a mineral, it occurs mainly in Belgium, Brazil, Germany, Italy, Iceland, Croatia, Mexico, Romania, Slovenia, the Czech Republic and the United States.
The calcite is one of the most common minerals, but relatively rare in the bright orange colors. These are usually obtained as rough stones, tumbled stones, pendants, caresses, or previously washed in acetic acid hand stones. These lose their sharp edges after treatment and thus get a wonderful shine. The acid treatment is only for visual beautification.
On the inside of the stone as well as on its effects, this treatment has absolutely no influence. Furthermore, there is this stone as a necklace, donuts and many imaginative particles for choker and leather strap.
