Aragonite is vital for the survival of many Earth’s creatures, as it’s the mineral that many invertebrates rely on to build their shells and hard structures. Whenever you’ve admired a vibrant seashell, you’ve celebrated the incredible color variety of Aragonite and the remarkable way it naturally forms on the Earth’s surface.
Aragonite and calcite are like twins with a twist—they share the same chemical makeup but sport slightly different crystal styles. They often hang out together and look so alike that only geologists usually bother to tell them apart. These days, calcite is the more popular and stable kid in the ocean, but once upon a time, Aragonite took the spotlight. Physically, they’re almost copycats of each other!
