Marine algae calcium is calcium carbonate laid down in the calcified skeletons of red marine algae of the genus Lithothamnion (CaCO3, CAS 471-34-1), harvested and milled as a standardized algal multimineral such as Aquamin. Because it is a plant-source material it is vegan, unlike the animal-derived hydroxyapatite, while its porous algal structure and accompanying trace minerals set it apart from mined mineral carbonate. It carries roughly 32% elemental calcium, below refined limestone carbonate but above the organic-acid salts. It is supplied as an off-white to pale powder. We manufacture it in capsules, tablets and powders.
