Both contain iron, are relatively heavy, black, and opaque.
some of our samples of pyrite are paramagnetic
The property that would be most useful in telling hematite and magnetite apart is magnetism. Magnetite is strongly magnetic, whereas hematite is not magnetic. This distinction can help differentiate between the two minerals.
Magnetite, hematite, goethite, in rock deposits.
No. Magnetite and, to a lesser degree, hematite are magnetic.
The difference between the iron in magnetite and hematite is the charge. Hematite has all 3+ iron ( the iron when make the mineral loses 3 electrons) and magnetite has some 2+ iron (it only loses 2 electrons).
Two different kinds of iron ore are hematite and magnetite. Hematite has a higher iron content and is typically reddish-brown in color, while magnetite is black and has magnetic properties. Both are important sources of iron for iron and steel production.
Magnetite, hematite, and limonite.Hematite ....... I think?
When magnetite (Fe3O4) and hematite (Fe2O3) are heated together, they form a solid solution known as magnesioferrite (MgFe2O4). This new compound has different magnetic and electrical properties compared to the original minerals.
Hematite is a substitute material for magnetite in certain applications due to its similar magnetic properties. It can be used in place of magnetite in industries such as heavy media separation and as a pigment in paints. However, the specific application and desired properties should be considered when choosing a substitute material.

Magnetite belongs to the spinel group of minerals
Hematite, Magnetite, Taconite, Goethite, Limonite and Siderite. Was that too many?
