Answer 2

limestone rock calcite mineral

The missing word is: Mineral.

That is because limestone is a sedimentary rock and the calcite is a carbonate mineral, by logical deduction, the analogy is pretty much describing what the first and third words are.

So, in the end, a limestone is a rock and calcite is a mineral.
