An inorganic mortar system includes a curable aluminous cement component A and an initiator component B for initiating the curing process, as well as a calcium carbonate with a crystalline calcite content determined by XRD of greater than 80% and a specific surface area of greater than 15 m.sup.2/g in component A and/or component B. Component A further includes at least one blocking agent selected from the group consisting of boric acid, phosphoric acid, metaphosphoric acid, phosphorous acid and phosphonic acids, at least one accelerator, and water, and component B includes an activator, at least one retarder, at least one mineral filler, and water. Moreover, the calcium carbonate accelerates calcium aluminate cement hydration. A method for the chemical fastening of anchors and post-installed reinforcing bars in mineral substrates is developed.
