Natural particles are the most abundant resources exist in nature. Bio-sources of CaCO₃ particles have attracted the attention of researchers for multiple cosmetics, industrial, and medical applications. This work investigates the structural evolution of CaCO₃ containing in snail shell particles prepared by a mechanochemical process using methods of characterization as well as Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (X-RD), Fourier transformation infra-red (FT-IR), and Scanning microscopy equipped with Energy-dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDXS). The result obtained from the above analysis indicates that SSP calcined between 200℃ to 400℃ undergoes an elimination of water molecules, followed by a phase transformation from Aragonite to CaCO₃ Calcite. At 800℃, the SSP decomposes CaCO₃, giving rise to calcium oxide crystals CaO, which release CO₂ molecules. These eliminations and transformations represent a loss of 47.08% of the initial mass at 800℃. The morphological analysis shows the surface of SSP calcined at 800℃ with CaO/CaCO₃ crystal formation. Also, the mechanochemical process leads to obtaining an SSP with a size between 3.311 µm to 10.140 µm. Snail shells can be a natural source of CaCO₃ and CaO, thanks to their ease of extraction and processing.
