Calcite is a crystalline form of Calcium-Carbonate (CaCO3). Calcite is extremely common, forming multiple types of rocks, such as [[limestone]], [[marble]], and [[chalk]], it is also known to form as a concrete in some [[sandstone]]s and [[siltstone]]s. Calcite, along with other crystalline forms of Calcium Carbonate such as Aragonite (which is not present in Dwarf Fortress) is readily edible (although not easily chewed, and not very palatable), and can be used to as an supplementary source of calcium in an otherwise calcium-poor diet.
