Blue calcite is a mineral variety of calcite that is distinguished by its blue color, usually due to the presence of trace elements like copper. While calcite itself is a common mineral, blue calcite is rarer and sought after for its unique aesthetics and potential healing properties. It is composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃).
Here's a more detailed look at blue calcite:
Composition and Formation:
-
Blue calcite, like all calcite, is primarily composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃).
