Cobalto calcite is a variety of Calcite, with calcium carbonate forming as a polymorph. A polymorph is a crystal that can appear to be one thing, which is actually another. This is fairly common with Calcites as they often growth with other crystals, and the other crystals can grow to cover, or change the appearance. Cobaltocalcite contains impurities of cobalt, which changes the colour and the surface appearance and texture. Cobaltocalcite is known as Cobaltoan Calcite and Sphaerocobaltite and forms wonderful rose pink crystal specimens. 

The mineral composition of Cobaltoan Calcite is primarily calcium carbonate (CaCO3), the same as other varieties of calcite. However, the presence of cobalt impurities is what causes the characteristic pink coloration.
