Growing high demand

The demand for pure natural calcium carbonate is growing rapidly around the world.

What is Calcite?

Calcite or Calcium carbonate is a white, non-toxic and odorless chemical compound naturally found in the earth’s crust. Moreover, it is a common constituent of chalk, limestone, and marble. Calcite is extracted by mining or quarrying for use in industrial processes. It is available in type namely precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) and ground calcium carbonate (GCC).

PCC has a very fine and controlled particle size whereas GCC has a powdery-like texture having various grade sizes. Due to the high brightness and light scattering properties, calcium carbonate is extensively used in paper and pulp industries as a filler for white paper. It is also used as a coating pigment in the paints and coatings industries.

Calcite derived from high-purity limestone or marble is used as a food additive (designated E170) and also in multiple medical applications. Our quarry is officially assessed to contain 98,90% of the purest CaCO3 (Calcium Carbonate) and 0,46% CaMg(CO3)2, which means 99,72 % total carbonates. This high-purity material will be used exclusively for the international medical and food industry. We already have an official letter of intent for approximately $18MM per annum in purchases from an industry-leading company in Europe. Marble is also used as a food additive (designated E170) and also in multiple medical applications.

The Bottom Line

Our unique selling point is that we have the utmost purest calcite on the market. This high-quality calcite alone will put us among the world-leading suppliers of this kind of pure product. Worldwide there are only a few companies that supply such pure quality but the quantities are very low and unstable making our product and the abundance thereof worth far more. Developing markets such as ASIA/India/Africa are consuming more and more resources making the gap between supply and demand grow larger year by year. This global demand will be reflected in our price. Calcite.io will be one of the few suppliers to all industries worldwide. Even the competition will be buying from us.

Business Plan

Location and facilities

The location of the future factory is planned in the business zone Primorski Dolac, Dalmatia, which is located near the quarry, at a distance of 18km. The construction of production facilities is planned on land of up to 50,000 m2. The business zone has all the necessary utility infrastructure including natural gas and utility scale electric, thereby avoiding large infrastructure costs and sits near a highway. The site is supplied with the main electricity supplier and it will be possible to build its own substations on site.

It is planned to build two production halls, each with an area of 2,000 m2. Warehouses for finished products, a warehouse for raw materials, as well as a business building that will house offices, a laboratory and all other administrative facilities will also be built. As part of the business scope, a restaurant and cafeteria will be built, as well as other facilities for recreation and relaxation of employees.

Green Energy

Solutions For a Low Carbon World

Calcite.io is an advocate for a cleaner tomorrow and will provide decarbonization solutions such as solar microgrids for primary power. With over 350 days of sunlight in Dalmacija/Split, the calcite plant will be perfectly positioned for sustainable solar energy. This clean energy will also provide a higher profit margin as energy costs will be held to a minimum. Water used within the plant will be recycled and cleaned internally to be reused indefinitely, thus providing a much smaller environmental footprint.

F.A.Q.

Frequently Asked Questions

This section will update as we get new questions in

What information can you provide about your team members?

The team of Calcite consists of experienced businessmen in the natural resource field. You can visit the team’s company websites Maks Products and Goring d.o.o as well as ProPharma and defiboost. Upon request (please email us) you can view two different feasibility studies conducted by DLA Piper and Cunsultatio Primo. Our team is transparent, Goran going as far as saying whoever feels like visiting the quarry is welcome!

How do I know that the project will succeed?

The quarry is currently operational and generating profit, and we have an existing buyer for high purity Calcium Carbonate, thus minimizing risk. Croatia is a member of the European Union and the quarry holds an official mining concession until 2053.

I don’t know much about mining. Why is your mine so special compared to other mines?

The high volume of high purity calcium carbonate in our quarry is extremely rare while demand is much greater than the supply available, leading to a consistent increase in market price every year and offering returns comparable or better than any other commodity investment.

What is the use case for calcium carbonate? Why is it better than other calcite on the market?

Yes the industrial side of calcium is not the most exciting but that is where we greatly differ. The calcium carbonate derived from our quarry has been tested and proven to be among the purest within the industry, thus lending itself to being applied within the medical and food industries for every day items such as filler for tablets, toothpaste, children's milk, dietary supplements, etc. making it extremely valuable.
