Caribbean Calcite
Identification clues
Pale sea-blue areas sit beside cream, tan, or white bands in this carved trade-name material.
Mineral facts
Caribbean Calcite is a commercial name, not a recognised mineral species; the label alone cannot prove composition or locality.
Care guidance
Treat it as a soft, cleavage-prone, acid-sensitive carbonate: use a dry cloth and avoid soaking or acids.
Look a little closer
Try this observation.
Compare the blue, cream and tan areas. Record the visible bands without treating the trade name as proof of origin or exact composition.
