Any mineral that contains carbonate anions. Probably the most common one is limestone.
The acid test tells you whether it is a carbonate or not.
A sample of carbonate is acid. Acid is what identifies carbonate in science studies.
It tells us whether or not the mineral is a carbonate.
Marble is in the carbonate mineral group. Limestone and dolomite are also in the carbonate mineral group. Marble is formed from limestone.
Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3)
Calcite
No, quartz is in the silicate mineral group, with a composition of SiO2. Carbonates have the group ending of - for example CaCO3. One contains silicon, the other carbon.
A pearl would be composed of carbonate minerals.
Diamond belong to the Igneous rock group!!

Aragonite is a common carbonate mineral that is a polymorph of calcite. It is classified as a member of the aragonite group and belonging to the class of carbonates.
Calcium carbonate
Bauxite is not a mineral, and therefore does not belong in any mineral group. Bauxite is a form of consolidated, extremely weathered soil that is high in aluminum content, and the main ore of aluminum.
== Limestone, dolomite and marble are carbonate rocks.
Calcium carbonate (known as calcite CaCO3) is a common carbonate rock-forming mineral.
