Mineralienatlas (name for mineral atlas) is the platform for people interested in mineralogy, geology, palaeontology and mining since 2001. We operate a significant database for minerals, fossils, rocks and their localities. Mineralienatlas is not limited to a section. We bring together information and inform comprehensive.

To complete our information constantly, we need your support. With us, everyone can and should participate. Currently Mineralienatlas is used and expanded by 10586 members. Every month hundreds of thousands of visitors use our website as an information source.

Ara­g­onite is a cal­ci­um car­bo­nate, chem­i­cal­ly iden­ti­cal with calcite. The min­er­al calcite, how­ev­er, dif­fers from Ara­g­onite due to its in­ter­nal crys­tal struc­ture. While the crys­tal sys­tem of calcite is trig­o­n­al, the sys­tem of ara­g­onite is rhom­bic. Dense mass­es of small ara­g­onite crys­tals are dif­fi­cul ... moreAragonite is a calcium carbonate, chemically identical with calcite. The mineral calcite, however, differs from Aragonite due to its internal crystal structure. While the crystal system of calcite is trigonal, the system of aragonite is rhombic. Dense masses of small aragonite crystals are difficult to distinguish from calcite, but they are larger, they show a distinct habit.

A lot of chapters in this portrait will give you much more details about this interesting mineral. Written and investigated by Peter Seroka. (Article in german)
