Calcium iodate is any of two inorganic compounds with the formula Ca(IO₃)₂(H₂O)_x, where x = 0 or 1. Both are colourless salts that occur as the minerals lautarite and bruggenite, respectively. A third mineral form of calcium iodate is dietzeite, a salt containing chromate with the formula Ca₂(IO₃)₂CrO₄. These minerals are the most common compounds containing iodate.
