No, natural chalk found in nature is formed from the shells of marine organisms, while chalk used on chalkboards is typically made from gypsum or calcium sulfate. The chalkboard chalk is designed to have a smooth texture and be easily erased from chalkboards.
Chalkboards are typically written on with chalk, which is made from calcium sulfate mineral known as gypsum. This material leaves a distinctive mark on the slate surface of the chalkboard.
As much as 1% in granites sold for interior use. That is "granite" not granite though.

Yes, both sidewalk chalk and blackboard chalk are typically made of calcium sulfate. However, sidewalk chalk is often mixed with additional ingredients like pigments and binding agents to make it more durable for outdoor use.
A blackboard is a piece of slate stone on which people can write multiple times and erase what they wrote. One can use chalk to write on the surface and then remove it easily even with bare hands.
The best colour pigment to use with a traditional blackboard is natural chalk. You can buy chalk-sticks to draw on a blackboard in a well-assorted stationery store or from companies specialising in educational equipment. The huge advantage of chalk over any mixed paint or other pigments is the easy removal and non-toxic quality of the material which is thus safe to use for all age groups.
because we can use it to write on chalk boards

Blackboard manufacturers often advise that a new or newly resurfaced chalkboard be completely covered using the side of a stick of chalk and then that chalk brushed off as normal to prepare it for use. Blackboards are commonly used in teaching. The chalk marks can be quickly and easily wiped off with a damp cloth or a special blackboard eraser consisting of a block of wood covered by a felt pad. Chalkmarks made on some types of wet blackboard can be difficult to remove.
Use a wet towel or sponge. put a few drops of detergent in the water. After the (slate0 board is dry, chalk it by rubbing the side of a stick of chalk all over it then erase it with a felt eraser.
TAILORS; when tailors make your clothes,they use that chalk.(it might be erasable) PENCIL; you use it to write your assignments on the paper.
To chalk a blackboard for a professional and clean finish, start by cleaning the board with a damp cloth to remove any dust or residue.
