## Abstract Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool in identifying different calcium carbonate polymorphs. Here, the method is applied to cultured pearls from freshwater (genus __Hyriopsis__) and marine bivalve species (__Pinctada maxima__) as well as to shells of __Diplodon chilensis patagonicus__ b

**Amorphous calcium carbonate** is produced as spherical particles (see Figure) via in‐situ generation of CO~2~ by hydrolysis of dialkyl carbonates in aqueous solution of CaCl~2~ at room temperature. This method of synthesis (precipitation) allows detailed studies of the particle formation process.
