In deep sedimentary basins, the iron-bearing mineral siderite (FeCO3\text{FeCO}_3FeCO3​) undergoes diagenetic alteration in the presence of pore-water calcium ions to form the double carbonate mineral ankerite, CaFe(CO3)2\text{CaFe}(\text{CO}_3)_2CaFe(CO3​)2​.

Complete the ionic equation for this conversion of siderite into ankerite.

.....FeCO3+.....→CaFe(CO3)2+Fe2+ \text{.....}\text{FeCO}_3 + \text{.....} \rightarrow \text{CaFe}(\text{CO}_3)_2 + \text{Fe}^{2+} .....FeCO3​+.....→CaFe(CO3​)2​+Fe2+
