It is a common substance found inrocksas themineralscalciteandaragonite, most notably inchalkandlimestone,eggshells,gastropod shells,shellfishskeletons andpearls. Materials containing much calcium carbonate or resembling it are described ascalcareous. Calcium carbonate is the active ingredient inagricultural lime.Limescaleis calcium carbonate produced when calciumionsinhard waterreact withcarbonate ions. Calcium carbonate has medical use as acalciumsupplement or as anantacid, but excessive consumption can be hazardous and causehypercalcemiaand digestive issues.
