  It's better than that. According to Wikipedia > Chalk is typically almost pure calcite, CaCO3, with just 2% to 4% of other minerals The supplement I just looked up uses Calcium Carbonate. That could just be purified chalk and be in compliance with the FDA. In fact, it probably is just that.

    Animals eat naturally-occurring chalk (and other substances) to regulate key minerals. It's called geophagia.
