Calcium is a metallic element, fifth in abundance in the
earth's crust, of which it forms more than 3%. It is an essential
constituent of leaves, bones, teeth, and shells.
The metal is a silvery colour and is rather hard. Chemically
it is one of the alkaline earth elements; it readily forms
a white coating of nitride in air, reacts with water, burns
with a yellow-red flame, forming largely the nitride.
Calcium does not occur free in nature. Calcium is found mostly
as limestone, gypsum and fluorite. Stalagmites and stalactites
contain calcium carbonate.
The Ca materials Dlrow deals with:
Calcium metal in forms of Ingot, Lump, Granule, Flake etc.
