Uses:-in a powdered form, calcite often has an extremely white color. Powdered calcite is often used as a white pigment or "whiting". Some of the earliest paints were made with calcite. It is a primary ingredient in whitewash and it is used as an inert coloring ingredient of paint. Pulverized limestone and marble are often used as a dietary supplement in animal feed. Chickens that produce eggs and cattle that produce milk need to consume a calcium-rich diet. Small amounts of calcium carbonate are often added to their feeds to enhance their calcium intake. Calcite has a hardness of three on the mohs scale and that makes it suitable as a low-hardness abrasive. It is softer than the stone, porcelain and plastic surfaces found in kitchens and bathrooms but more durable than dried food and other debris that people want to remove. Its low hardness makes it an effective cleaning agent that does not damage the surface being cleaned. Pulverized limestone is also used as a mine safety dust. This is a nonflammable dust that is sprayed onto the walls and roofs of underground coal mines to reduce the amount of coal dust in the air (which can be an explosion hazard). The mine safety dust adheres to the wall of the mine and immobilizes the coal dust. Its white color aids in illumination of the mine. It is the perfect material for this use.
