Mineral Shell Powder
Particle size 0–1.5 mm
Millions of years ago, due to the overlapping of sea waters, sea shells and corals accumulated on top of each other. Now, after the passage of many years, they have turned into fossils, which are called fossil calcium carbonate (mineral oyster). It is also known by the name Lomashell or mountain oyster and mineral CaCO3. Lomashell is the purest type of calcium in nature and an exceptional mineral widely used for humanity, which is used as a raw material for the productions of livestock, poultry, and aquatic animal feed factories, pharmaceuticals, medicinal and food supplements, paper, organic fertilizers, glass, and the PVC and UPVC industry, etc.
Types of Oyster:
1- Powder with a size of 0-1 mm: Livestock and poultry feed factories, poultry farms, pharmaceuticals, etc., and factories producing modern building materials, pharmaceuticals, etc.
2- Sugar-like (granular) with a size of 1-3 mm: Broiler chicken farms, laying hen pullets.
3- Granule with a size of 3-5 mm: Laying hens, breeders, grandparents, ostriches.
Benefits of mineral oyster powder in livestock, poultry, and aquatic animals:
1- Bone formation, blood coagulation, and hardening of the eggshell.
2- Increasing weight, milk (production), and increasing the immunity level of livestock and poultry.
3- Highly absorbable calcium and fast digestion.
4- The lowest probability of microbial contamination and causing disease and impurity.
5- Reducing the consumption rate of fossil carbonate compared to sedimentary calcium carbonate.
