OUR PRODUCTS PLAY CRUCIAL ROLE IN FOLLOWING INDUSTRIES
Earth's Crust Comprises of more than 4% Calcium Carbonate (CaCO ). It is 3 found in forms of chalk, limestone and marble, produced by over million years of sedimentation of shells of small fossilized snails, shellfish and coral. Although all three forms are identical in chemical terms, they differ in many other respects like purity, whiteness, thickness and homogeneity. Pure Calcium Carbonate can be produced from marble, or it can be prepared by passing carbon dioxide into a solution of calcium hydroxide.
Minaxi Minerals pioneered the manufacturing of quality Calcium Carbonate. We offer natural Calcium Carbonate, which is extracted by mining or quarrying and the same is used for industrial purposes.
Calcium Carbonate is one of the most useful and versatile materials known to man and can be used in diverse industries.
