Coral skeletons and calcite mud make what type of rock?
igneous
Would there be a reaction if you add acid to a rock that had been near a igneous rock?
If the rock near the igneous rock contains minerals sensitive to acid, there may be a reaction causing fizzing or effervescence due to the breakdown of minerals like calcite or dolomite. However, not all rocks will react to acid, and the specific composition of the rock near the igneous rock would determine if a reaction occurs.
A mineral never found in igneous rocks is?
chalk. Chalk is a type of limestone composed mainly of the mineral calcite, which is a sedimentary rock forming in marine environments. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava, so chalk is not typically found in igneous rocks.
Is granite a carbonate rock?
No, granite is not a carbonate rock. Granite is an igneous rock that is mainly composed of minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica. Carbonate rocks are sedimentary rocks made up of carbonate minerals like calcite and dolomite.
What is orange calcite classified as?
Orange Calcite is found in Igneous and Metamorphic rocks.
Is calcits a metamorpic rock sedementary rock or igneous rock?
calcite is a mineral.
What rock types can igneous rocks come from?
calcite
Is calcite a sedimentary?
Calcite is a mineral, not a rock. It can occur as part of rocks in any category. For instance, the sedimentary rock chalk consists almost entirely of calcite, the metamorphic rock marble consists mostly of calcite, and the igneous rock carbonatite consists mostly of calcite.

Is calcite metamorphic sedimentary or igneous?
Calcite is a mineral commonly found in sedimentary rocks. It can also be found in some metamorphic rocks, as it can recrystallize under heat and pressure. It is unlikely to be found in igneous rocks except in trace amounts.

What is orange calcite classified as?
Orange Calcite is found in Igneous and Metamorphic rocks.
Is calcite metamorphic?
Calcite is a mineral so therefor it is not Sedimentary, Metamorphic, nor Igneous. Although it is a form os S edimentary rock.
What is common to extrusive igneous rocks?
calcite
What kind of rock is calcite igneous metamorphic or sedimentary?
ANSWERCalcite is really not a rock it is a mineral therefore it can not really be metamorphic , sedimentary , or igneous. But it is usually associated in materials of sediment so most likely it is sedimentary. If you would have to pick one. SEDIMENTARY
