https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium%20borate
Calcium borate (Ca3(BO3)2). It can be prepared by reacting calcium metal with boric acid. The resulting precipitate is calcium borate. A hydrated form occurs naturally as the minerals colemanite, nobleite and priceite. One of its uses is as a binder in some grades of hexagonal boron nitride for hot pressing. Other use...
