The Great Calcite Belt refers to a significant geological feature characterized by the presence of extensive deposits of calcite, a mineral composed primarily of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). This belt is typically associated with regions where limestone and other sedimentary rocks are prevalent. One prominent example of a region often described in relation to the Great Calcite Belt is the geological formations found in the United States, particularly in areas like the Great Lakes region and parts of the Midwest.
