The uptake and incorporation of other elements, magnesium or strontium, in the calcite have been investigated and shown the bioavailability of these elements. In modem ocean waters, the content and range of magnesium in biotic and abiotic deposited minerals were virtually identical in studies by Carpenter and Lohmann (1992). However, there was a more rapid strontium uptake in the calcium-rich biomineral. The composition of the calcium carbonate mineral deposited is a function of kinetics and related to the metabolism of the organism.
