| - It is dropped by monsters found on Fossil Island, and can be mined from boulders inside the Volcanic Mine. It can also be purchased for 70 points each from Petrified Pete's Ore Shop.
- Calcite crystals are trigonal-rhombohedral, though actual calcite rhombohedra are rare as natural crystals. However, they show a remarkable variety of habits including acute to obtuse rhombohedra, tabular forms, prisms, or various scalenohedra. Calcite exhibits several twinning types adding to the variety of observed forms. It may occur as fibrous, granular, lamellar, or compact. Cleavage is usually in three directions parallel to the rhombohedron form. Its fracture is conchoidal, but difficult to obtain. It has a Mohs hardness of 3, a specific gravity of 2.71, and its luster is vitreous in crystallized varieties. Color is white or none, though shades of gray, red, yellow, green, blue, violet, brown, or even black can occur when the mineral is charged with impurities.
- Calcite is a carbonate mineral with the biochemical calcium carbonate. Calcite Is formed with Calcium(Ca) and Carbon Trioxide(Co3). It is one of the most widely distributed mineral's on the earth's surface. Calcite crystals are also used to create gypsy's crystal balls. Stalagmites and stalactites are also types of calcite that forms in caves. Calcite may have different colors or even no colors at all. Calcite appears as colorless, white, gray, yellow, and green. Calcite is a fluorescent mineral.

- Calcite was a mineral mined for its use in mixing cement.
- Calcite was a form of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Like calcite, minerals including aragonite, chalk, limestone, and marble are also forms of calcium carbonate. The caves found on Xantoras consisted of calcite, aragonite, and botyroidal flowstones. (ENT: "The Breach") After reaching a dead-end while hiding in the caverns from the Son'a on the Ba'ku planet, Data noted that there was oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere behind the calcite formation he was scanning. (Star Trek: Insurrection)
