Dogtooth Calcite, is a variety of Calcite mineral that forms distinct rhombohedral or scalenohedral crystals (the form of the unequal triangles). The term "dogtooth" refers to the shape of the crystals resembling the pointed teeth of a dog. Dogtooth Calcite typically forms in hydrothermal veins and cavities of sedimentary rocks, and is commonly found in association with other minerals such as Quartz, Fluorite and Baryte. The crystals grow as a result of precipitation from mineral-rich solutions.
