Bone cells are called osteocytes, and the matrix of the bone is made of calcium salts and collagen. Bone tissue is the major structural and supportive connective tissue of the body.
Bone.
bone (osseous) tissue
Bone
Bone is not connective tissue. Instead, connective tissue -- ligaments and tendons -- connect to the bone.
The organic component of the matrix of bones
CalciumThe mineralized osseous tissue, also called bone tissue, gives it rigidity and a honeycomb-like three-dimensional internal structure.The majority of bone is made of the bone matrix. It has inorganic and organic parts. Bone is formed by the hardening of this matrix entrapping the cells.The inorganic composition of bone (bone mineral) is formed from carbonated hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2)The organic part of matrix is mainly composed of Type I collagen.

Osteoclasts are the bone cells that remove bone tissue, or more properly termed bone matrix.
The salts that form tiny crystals in the intercellular matrix of bone tissue consist largely of calcium phosphate.
A bone cell is a living cell, but bone tissue includes a non-living matrix
