'''Chalk''' is a white, sedimentary rock, composed of calcium carbonate. On of it's most dramatic outcrops is along the south coast of [[England]] where it forms the "white cliffs of [[Dover]]".
    
Nowadays, chalk has been replaced by other substances. For example, the "chalk" that is used in blackboard writing or in sidewalk chalk is actually gypsum.
