The calcite crystallizes in the hexagonal/trigonal system. Calcite crystals have various shapes, including stalactites, stalagmites, and columns.

The formation of calcite crystals begins when carbonate ions unite in aqueous solution to form a solid mineral.

The precipitation of carbonate ions is controlled by factors such as the concentration of ions in the solution, temperature, and the pressure.

As crystals grow, they stick together and form a complex crystal structure. This structure is maintained by intermolecular forces that hold the molecules in place.

The shape and structure of calcite crystals can be influenced by factors such as calcite speed of growth, presence of impurities and direction of growth.

These factors can affect the appearance of crystals and their coloration.
