About Zebra Calcite
Zebra calcite is a banded formation of calcite/aragonite that comes out of Mexico. It can also be found on the market labeled as "banded aragonite", "zebra aragonite", and "phantom banded calcite". It often features alternating layers of white, black, brown, and golden yellow calcite. The color changes are a result of layered deposition in which different impurities resulted in varied coloration over time.
