I don't know anything about magnesium carbonate so can't comment. I'd rather use a form I knew was useful.

The trouble with the Country Life is that they don't say the magic words Albion Patent nor do they actually specify how much chelate and how much mag oxide are in them.
I think it would be better to go for Solgar or Blue bonnet. They say Albion Chelates (which is what krispin recommends) and they don't have any magnesium that isn't well absorbed. However I have to admit that I found both magnesium malate and magnesium citrate were fine.
