2. TECHNOLOGY Effecively actuated collisions if particles – a new kind of micronization technology. Enables significant reduction of particles size and enlarged and und mesoporous surface of particles. Treated material obtains a higher reactivity, energetic charge and better solvability – resulting in an upgraded bio-efficiency.

3. CALCITE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION*: -CaCO 3 :~94.40% -MgCO 3 : ~ 2,56% -SiO2: ~ 1,75% -Al 2 O 3 : ~ 0,43% -Na 2 O ~ 0,23% -Fe 2 O 3 ~ 0,19% -K 2 O ~ 0,10% MICROELEMENTS*: Mn: ~ 40 mg/kg Zn: ~ 45 mg/kg Cu: ~ 13,2 mg/kg Mo: ~ 0,04 mg/kg Sedimented mineral (fossilized algae) Croatia and Bosnia are rich in sedimented calcite sources *may vary, as MC consists only of natural products, which are subject to fluctuations.

4. MICRONISED CALCITE Original calcite, 25-times enlarged Micronized calcite 250-times enlarged – reduced particles size and enlarged mesoporouse surface

5. EFFECTS OF MC? The leaves’ surfaces cuticular and stomata absorb the water-dissolved MC directly and cause a better metabolism. Nutrients (Ca 2+, HCO 3-, Mg 2+, microelements, etc.) reach the cells inside the leaves when MC enters cuticular and stomata - they diffuse. Application is followed marked increase in cellular calcium levels

6. PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MC Enlargens chloroplasts, unleashs increase of activity in photosynthesis and absorption of CO 2 Raise of polyphenols Increment of protein-synthesis (higher metabolic activity) polphenol chloroplasts Control grapevine leaf (40-times enlarged) MC-treated grapevine leaf (40-times enlarged)

7. GROWTH Enhancement of growth speed (higher metabolic activity) Reduction of vegetative cycles‘ period Improvement of fruit quality (efficient transportation of nutrients) Elevation of gain of fruit

8. RESISTANCE Improved resistence against physiological stress – hydro-stress Antioxidant and water-obtaining activities of MC Revised resistence against diseases and pests Treated grapevine leaf (profie, 20-times enlarged) Conrtol grapevine leaf (profile, 20-times enlarged) Wax

9. QUALITY Increase of fruit’s dry substance - causing better proficiency in transportation and storage Gain of botanical secondary metabolites (flavonoids, tannins, lignin, fatty acids) Enhancement of healthy nutrient content (vitamins, minerals, antioxidants)

10. APPLICATION* MC-concentration of water should be between 0.3% and 0.5% Depending on type of culture, MC should be sprayed 2-3 times per vegetation. MC shall not be used within heavy insolation. *Considering individual times of application per vegetation, depending on type of plant
