The present work reports the vibrational analyses of the FTIR and Raman spectra of few samples of molluscan shells procured locally for study. Raman spectra (including FT-Raman) show distinct band with highest intensity at 1085cm-1 which is presumably due to symmetric mode of vibration of the ( ) group( ), 702 cm-1 which is due to the in-plane bending mode and 206cm-1 and 274cm-1 which are characteristics of lattice vibrations of the crystal of calcium carbonate of aragonite type. The out of plane bending mode at 860cm-1 and designated as is completely absent in the Raman spectra, but this band appears with strong intensity in the infrared spectra.
