Much of the earth’s limestone is formed from the ground down bodies of marine animals and corals, whose shells are made from both calcite aragonite, a polymorph of calcite. All Aragonite will turn into calcite at temperatures over 300℃. The name Calcite comes from the latin for “chalk”. There are over 800 different growth forms of calcite.
