The mineral containing both magnesium and calcium is

  • A.Magnesite

Answer: D

Dolomite contains both magnesium and calcium.

Its formula is \(\mathrm{CaMg(CO_3)_2}\). Magnesite is \(\mathrm{MgCO_3}\), calcite \(\mathrm{CaCO_3}\), and carnallite \(\mathrm{KCl\cdot MgCl_2\cdot 6H_2O}\), which has magnesium but no calcium.
