Cobaltoan Calcite, also known as Cobalt Calcite and Aphrodite Stone, is an uncommon variety of Calcite that has Cobalt impurities and an extremely sparkly exterior. Usually the amount of Cobalt within determines how deep the color of pink the stone is. On occasion, Cobalto Calcite can be found with inclusions of raw Copper. The most active vein currently being mined for Cobalto Calcite is in the Congo, producing much of the current market’s Cobalto Calcite. Members of the Calcite family are carbonate minerals and are the most stable polymorphs of calcium carbonate. Calcite is derived from the German word “Calcit”, which is a term the Latin word for lime from the 19th century. Calcite can be dissolved by water and is not water friendly. Calcite also has an unusual characteristic called “retrograde solubility” in which it becomes less soluble in water as the temperature increases. Calcite is also quite soft with a Mohs hardness of 3 and is available worldwide in over 300 different shapes and styles occurring naturally.
