Introduction of calcite:
Calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate, like most carbonates, will dissolve with most forms of acid. It has a defining Mohs hardness of 3, a specific gravity of 2.71, and its luster is vitreous in crystallized varieties. Calcite is one of the most important minerals. The properties of calcite make it extremely useful as: construction materials, abrasives, agricultural soil treatments, construction aggregates, pigments, pharmaceuticals and more.

As to the calcite crushing ,we company recommend you the jaw crusher, impact crusher, cone crusher and so on. And you can also use our matched grinding equipment such as the ball mill and vertical roller mill if you have higher requirement about the final particle size. As the largest manufacturer of mining and crushing equipment in China, we provide quality after-sales service with much successful production experience. And the calcite production line will also bring you the most benefits !
Crushing process of Calcite:
The calcite will be entered the jaw crusher by the vibrating feeder, and then be entered the vibrating screen by the belt conveyor to receive the screening. And after the crushing, the particle will be entered the secondary or tertiary crushing equipment to receive the screening and be transferred to the specific site by the belt conveyor(instruction as follows ).
Raw materials of Calcite –> vibrating feeder –> Jaw crusher –> impact crusher –> vibrating screen –>belt conveyor –> Final products of Calcite
Calcite Crushing Equipment
According calcite powder’s application, we need crushing and grinding machines to get ore powders. Zenith is a professional manufacturer of ore crusher and industrial grinding mill, so Zenith can supply you calcite crushers and calcite grinding mills. And also we can make some detail crushing or grinding solution for your ore business.
Great crushing ratio, even granularity, simple structure, reliable operation, easy maintenance, operating costs and economic characteristics, Zenith calcite crusher is widely used in mining, smelting, building material, highway, railway, water conservancy and chemical industry and other sectors.
Calcite cone crusher, has a simple structure, stable performance, not easy to fault, maintenance convenient, large capacity, high efficiency, high quality, and the shape of the cavity with a variety of fine crushing, double insurance, the control of hydraulic and lubrication systems, calcite cone crusher is widely used in metal mining, metallurgical industry, chemical industry, construction industry, cement industry, and sand and gravel industries.
Calcite or calcspar Mining
The mineral is worked by shallow pits. During mining the calcite is sorted out into different grades depending upon the colours as they fetch different prices and also, because their suitability depends upon the colours. The mineral is used invariably in the form of fine powder. Few important mine-owners have their own pulverizing plants; others sell to pulverizers. Generally calcite is supplied in three qualities: Best white (super-fix), White (Calico), Grey white (Gemco).
Calcite or calcspar Applications
In Calcite Applications that must be use our crusher and grinding mill. Crush Calcite into different particle size, grind it into different fineness, so that you can use it in the following areas:
Calcite for paper industries
Calcium carbonate in the form of chalk is used as filler in the paper industry. It is used as a cheap way to make bright opaque paper. Filler is used at the wet-end of paper making machines, the calcium carbonate filler allows for the paper to be bright and smooth.
Calcite for optical industries
The transparent and clear crystals are used in the optical industry, for the manufacture of nicol prism. Principal characteristics which make iceland-spar of special value for use in optical instruments are its very high birefringence, high degree of purity, perfect crystalline structure and transparency. The mineral must be in pieces at least 25mm. long, 12mm. thick, colorless, transparent and free from cloudy inclusions, cavities, and foreign substances.
A commercial use of calcium carbonate is its use in antacids. This is also due to its ability to dissolve in acid and to produce carbon dioxide and water. The calcium carbonate in the antacid dissolves in the stomach acid, HCl and produces water, carbon dioxide and calcium chloride.
Calcite for construction industries
The main use is being its contribution to the making of mortar which is used in bonding bricks, concrete blocks, stones, and tiles in construction.
