Description: Chocolate calcite is a variety of calcite, a common mineral found in sedimentary rocks and limestone formations. This particular variety gets its name from its distinctive banded chocolate-brown color, which is caused by the presence of iron oxide impurities. Chocolate calcite is UV reactive under longwave UV light - the lighter bands of this stone fluoresce a ghostly white color when exposed to UV.

Chocolate calcite's grounding properties and its earthy, warm color are believed to resonate with the energy of the root chakra, making it a popular choice for balancing and activating this energy center.  Through this mechanism, it is believed to help to strengthen one's connection to the Earth, enhance feelings of security, and promote a sense of stability and groundedness. It is thought to aid in emotional healing by gently releasing negative emotions and promoting a sense of inner peace and tranquility. Like other forms of calcite, chocolate calcite is associated with creativity and inspiration. It is said to stimulate the imagination and encourage innovative thinking.
