Calcareous sinter is a freshwater calcium carbonate deposit, also known as calc-sinter . Deposits are characterised by low porosity and well-developed lamination , often forming crusts or sedimentary rock layers. Calcareous sinter should not be confused with siliceous sinter , which the term sinter more frequently [ ci...

Calcium arsenate is the inorganic compound with the formula Ca 3 (AsO 4 ) 2 . A colourless salt, it was originally used as a pesticide and as a germicide . It is highly soluble in water, in contrast to lead arsenate , which makes it more toxic. Two minerals are hydrates of calcium arsenate: rauenthalite Ca 3 (AsO 4 ) 2...
