Aragonite Market

Aragonite is a carbonate mineral and is polymorph form of calcium carbonate. Aragonite occurs in two different places. One during the metamorphism of deep-sea basaltic rock in greenstone likewise is formed at a relatively low temperature of the high pressure in a pocket of Moroccan lava bed. The other major occurrence of aragonite is in the sea life where it is formed in carbonate shell.

<strong>Aragonite</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

<strong>Aragonite</strong> is a carbonate mineral and is polymorph form of calcium carbonate. <strong>Aragonite</strong> occurs in two<br />

different places. One during the metamorphism of deep-sea basaltic rock in greenstone likewise is<br />

formed at a relatively low temperature of the high pressure in a pocket of Moroccan lava bed. The other<br />

major occurrence of aragonite is in the sea life where it is formed in carbonate shell. <strong>Aragonite</strong> in sea life<br />

is formed due to the chemical condition such as the concentration of magnesium, which favors formation<br />

of carbonate shell. <strong>Aragonite</strong> is metastable at the surface condition and is reverted to calcite on heating<br />

it to 400 degree Celsius. Single aragonite crystal is shaped more like prisms or tablet and multiple twins’<br />

makes aragonite in pseudo-hexagons shape. It is most common naturally occurring crystal forms of<br />

calcium carbonate similar to other minerals such as vaterite and calcite. <strong>Aragonite</strong> is colorless in its pure<br />

form, impurities in aragonite lead it to form in different variety colors. <strong>Aragonite</strong> commercial use is<br />

similar to limestone and high calcium carbonate material. It is popularly used in reef aquariums to<br />

replicate the sea like conditions for aquatic animals. <strong>Aragonite</strong> is also used as a gemstone in jewelry. It is<br />

used, along with soda ash and sand, in making glass. Properties such as rich in calcium carbonate, low in<br />

magnesium and alkaline in nature are found in aragonite, and it can be used in agriculture to help to<br />

condition the soil which results reducing the acidity in the soil.<br />

Global <strong>Aragonite</strong> <strong>Market</strong>: Dynamics<br />

<strong>Aragonite</strong> in its raw state helps to add biological benefits to soil and limit the amount of the use of<br />

fertilizers as aragonite stimulates the microbial life in the soil that giving nutrients available for plant<br />

utilization. The factor is the key driver of the growth of global aragonite market.<br />

<strong>Aragonite</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

<strong>Aragonite</strong> sand replicates to natural properties likewise sea for aquatic animals in reef aquariums and<br />

thus shows potential factor for the growth of aragonite market. Moreover aragonite sand for aquatic<br />

animal keeps the pH of the water to the natural level which helps in to prevent the dissolution of biogenic<br />

calcium carbonate. Another potential factor to the growth of aragonite market is aragonite treatment<br />

removes pollutants like cobalt, zinc, and lead from contaminated waste water. Calcium salt powder as a<br />

derivate of aragonite is used therapeutically as a phosphate buffer in hemodialysis patients which helps<br />

the patients to filter, remove waste, such as urea, from the blood and eliminate extra fluid from the body<br />

is an additional factor driving the growth of global aragonite market. Application of aragonite to soil gives<br />

enhancement by giving 30-35% of calcium and less than 2% of magnesium with an array of trace minerals<br />

like iron, copper, and zinc. Restraint to aragonite market is the availability of aragonite is high as<br />

compared to limestones and other nitrates.<br />

Global <strong>Aragonite</strong> <strong>Market</strong>: Region Wise Outlook<br />

The global aragonite market is divided into seven regions, namely North America, Latin America, Asia<br />

Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ), Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Japan and the Middle East and Africa<br />

(MEA). North America dominates the global aragonite market. The region has aragonite sand at beaches<br />

in Florida which are a driving factor for the region. Moreover, the growing reef aquarium at domestic<br />

places and high-end restaurants brings in demand for aragonite is a potential factor in the forecast period<br />

of global aragonite market. Followed by North America is Europe which is growing due to its application<br />

in soil, giving increased fertility to soil condition and reducing the application of fertilizer. North America<br />

and Europe is estimated to witness healthy CAGR in the forecast period of aragonite market.<br />
