Raman spectra of polymorphic CaCO3 crystals formed in the presence of S. aquimarina (SA01-0.3M) evidencing the coexistence of calcite and vaterite within a single crystal and showing their spatial arrangement (a); and SEM BSE image of internal structure of biotic precipitates of S. aquimarina with some cores showing traces of vaterite spherulites (yellow dotted circle) and others that have started to be filled by advancing crystallisation steps (red solid circle) (b).
