Calcite is more stable and common than aragonite under the chemistry of our modern seas.) Hardness 3 (down to 2. but also the ease with which it forms. in the form of marble.5 to 4. Calcite forms in a range of settings from hot springs and underground caverns to growing coral reefs and seashells.
The Mineral aragonite. Aragonite and the more common mineral Calcite are polymorphous to each other. Although Aragonite and Calcite contain the same chemical composition, they differ in crystal structure. Aragonite forms orthorhombic crystals, whereas Calcite forms trigonal crystals. Sometimes the crystals of Aragonite and Calcite are too small to be detected, and it is only possible to distinguish these two minerals by complex scientific optical tests.
