Dear friends,

I am directed to you by your friend Miriam Tam, for having an information on the
mechanical properties of Calcium carbonate.
I shall be highly grateful and indebted if the Young's modulus, Poisson ratio,
shear modulus and mass density values of calcium carbonate (calcite or
aragonite) could be made available to me.

Sincerely yours
Rahul
