Abstract
Natural crystals of Iceland spar are formed in both chloride and carbonate hydrothermal solutions. In this communication we shall present the results of some experiments on the growth of calcite crystals in aqueous solutions of carbonic acid. In relation to the composition of the virtual components* these solutions are analogous to natural carbonate thermal springs.
