Calcite

Calcite is a popular crystal that comes in a variety of shades like white, yellow, orange, red, brown, grey, blue, pink and green. It’s transparent to translucent and can have a vitreous, resinous or pearly luster. This crystal is known for energy amplification and bringing balance. It’s also related to higher consciousness, psychic abilities, wisdom and memory, although each color has its own meaning too.

What is Calcite?

calcite crystals
Calcite is most commonly found in sedimentary rocks, hydrothermal veins and caverns. The process of formation includes rapid dehydration of calcium carbonate that produces vaterite which later turns into Calcite through recrystallization. Other inclusions within the compound result in many varieties of colors. Calcite also grows in TONS of different formations such as bladed, point, tabular and more.

Calcite is a carbonate mineral. It’s a crystal that can easily be scratched by sharper materials because it’s a 3 on the Mohs scale of harness. It has a conchoidal fracture when the mineral breaks. This material is also highly reactive with acids, even with the weaker ones like vinegar.

raw calcite
Calcite’s name was inspired by the Latin word “calx” meaning “lime”. This points out that the mineral is mainly formed in limestones. 

Where is Calcite Found?

Calcite is a versatile mineral that is found all over the world. It occurs in a variety of colors, including white, yellow, orange, green, blue, and pink, and can often be found in massive or crystalline form. Calcite is commonly found in sedimentary rocks, such as limestone and marble, and can also be found in hydrothermal veins and as a secondary mineral in ore deposits.

In the United States, calcite can be found in many different states, including Illinois, Missouri, Tennessee, and Kentucky. In Illinois, calcite can be found in the form of massive deposits in the Cave-in-Rock district. Missouri is another notable location for calcite, where it occurs in a variety of colors and crystal habits, such as dogtooth and nailhead calcite. Calcite can also be found in Tennessee, where it occurs in the form of crystalline masses and veins in the Chattanooga shale. In Kentucky, calcite is abundant in the Mammoth Cave National Park, where it can be found in various forms, including speleothems and cave pearls.

Calcite can also be found in other countries around the world, such as Mexico, China, and India. Mexico is known for its large deposits of calcite, particularly in the form of stalactites and stalagmites found in caves. China is another significant source of calcite, where it can be found in many different colors and crystal habits, including rhombohedral and scalenohedral forms. In India, calcite is commonly found in the form of stalactites and stalagmites in the caves of the northeastern state of Meghalaya.

But honestly comes from SOOOO many places.

Why some calcite glows under UV

The UV reactivity of calcite is attributed to the presence of certain impurities or trace elements within the crystal lattice. One of the most common causes is the presence of manganese (Mn) ions, as is the case for mangano calcite, which can cause calcite to exhibit a fluorescent or phosphorescent response under ultraviolet light. When exposed to UV radiation, the manganese ions absorb energy and then emit it as visible light, resulting in a vibrant glow or color change in the calcite. Other factors, such as the crystal's structural defects or the presence of rare earth elements, can also contribute to UV reactivity in calcite. It is the unique combination of these factors that gives rise to the fascinating UV-reactive properties observed in some specimens of calcite.

You can read more about UV reactive crystals on the blog post too.
