Bahamas-born. Ocean‑formed. Documented by grade.
AragoCor Minerals LLC supplies one material — natural Bahamian oolitic aragonite — in four defined grades, each under a technical data sheet, to bulk and industrial buyers.
Where it comes from, what is done to it, and what is written down.
Each ooid is a small sphere of calcium carbonate built up in concentric layers around a nucleus in the warm, shallow marine water of the Great Bahama Bank. The commercial material is that natural grain, screened into grades. Nothing below goes beyond what the source documentation and the technical data sheets record.
Source
The material is sourced in The Bahamas, on the Great Bahama Bank, through Aragosan Minerals Limited.
Source documentation identifying the source entity and the collection and processing chain is available to buyers whose programs require it.
Because every grade comes from one deposit, one published analysis serves all of them. It is representative analysis of the deposit, from which each grade is screened — not a per-grade or per-lot guarantee:
- Lot values are confirmed by certificate of analysis.
- Guaranteed limits are agreed in writing per contract.
Processing
Mechanical only:
- Collection
- Washing
- Screening
- Drying below 93 °C
- Classification into grades
No quarry blasting, no calcination, no chemical treatment and no additives at any stage, as recorded in the process description PDS-OA-001.
The absence of a calcination step describes the processing route. It is not, by itself, a lifecycle or comparative carbon claim, and none is made here.
Sales and quotation
AragoCor Minerals LLC, Stockton, California:
- sells the graded material
- prepares quotations
- publishes the controlled documents
- coordinates orders.
Stockton is the office; the shipping origin, packaging and freight for an order are confirmed on quotation.
The states shown on the locations page are delivery areas served by quotation, not warehouses or terminals.
What is written down, and what each figure means.
- Master sheet
- TDS-OA-001 carries the full composition, physical properties, screen specification and grade table.
- One technical data sheet per grade
- TDS-AG-001, TDS-GL-001, TDS-WT-001 and TDS-PL-001 carry the values that apply to that grade.
Every published value carries one of four statuses
- Representative analysis
- A laboratory result on an identified sample (composition by ASTM C 25, Bowser-Morner report 124914A).
- Published range
- A range AragoCor publishes.
- Published reference
- A property of the mineral species.
- Customer specification required
- The figure is set by the buyer at order.
None of these is a guaranteed minimum or maximum: guaranteed limits are agreed in writing per contract and, per TDS-OA-001, confirmed per lot by a certificate of analysis.
Two more statuses apply only once an order exists: Product specification, a value the grade is supplied against, and Lot-specific COA, a value that exists only on the certificate for an individual dispatched lot. All six are set out in How to read a calcium carbonate data sheet.
On request
- The 16-section GHS safety data sheet
- The OMRI listing summary CERT-OA-001
- The process description PDS-OA-001
- The occupational safety summary SHS-OA-001
The third-party laboratory report is request-only under its distribution terms.
Each sheet carries its current revision and a revision history, and its PDF is printed from the web sheet, so the two read alike.
OMRI Listed:
- Crop fertilizer avw-23214 (listed 26 Jun 2026, expires 1 Sep 2027)
- Livestock feed material avw-23215
OMRI operates a listing, not a certification, and neither listing extends to a custom blend with other ingredients.
- CAS 1317-65-3, naturally occurring calcium carbonate.
- No NSF/ANSI 61 or other potable-water contact certification is held.
This site makes no environmental-monitoring, habitat-protection or carbon claim about the material or its collection. None will be made until the documentation behind it is cleared for publication with its issuer, title, date and scope.
One mineral, documented by grade.
AragoCor was formed to supply a distinctive natural calcium carbonate: Bahamian oolitic aragonite. Its orthorhombic crystal structure and rounded ooids differentiate it from conventional calcitic limestone across documented grades, particle sizes and applications.
We built the business around one material and a controlled-document approach: published values, product specifications and analytical results are organized by grade, carry their evidence status, and are supplied to buyers before the first call.
Grade, sizing and packaging are reviewed against each inquiry — fields, water systems, glass batches, turf, growing media and industrial formulations — and quoted against confirmed volume and destination.
Three working principles.
One-material focus
We concentrate on aragonite rather than a broad mineral catalog, keeping application discussions focused on the delivered grade, documentation and performance requirements.
The spec is the spec
Product specifications and analytical documentation give buyers a clear technical record for each supplied grade.
Source transparency
Our material is sourced in The Bahamas through Aragosan Minerals Limited. Source documentation is available to customers.
