Pearls primarily consist of calcium carbonate, which is in the form of aragonite and calcite. They also contain a small amount of conchiolin, a protein that helps bind the calcium carbonate crystals together. Trace minerals such as magnesium, strontium, and iron can also be present, contributing to the pearl's color and luster.
