It is magnetic, usually smooth and black.
Magnetite was mined in Avery County, North Carolina. There is also some magnetite in Haw River State Park.
Magnetite is the magnetic iron oxide mineral. It is a black or brown mineral with a chemical formula Fe3O4, and it is a common iron ore mineral found in many rocks and soils around the world. It is known for its strong magnetic properties.
The diaphaneity of magnetite is opaque.
Magnetite is Fe3O4.
No, magnetite does not have a salty taste. Magnetite is an iron oxide mineral, primarily composed of iron and oxygen, and is typically not associated with any taste, as it is not soluble in water. While some minerals can have distinct tastes, magnetite is generally considered tasteless and is primarily valued for its magnetic properties and use in industrial applications.
Ilmenite, Franklinite, Magnetite.
Some minerals contain magnetite, which is atracted to magnets.
Lodestone, a variety of the mineral magnetite, displays strong magnetism. Some other minerals are weakly magnetic, or display magnetism when heated.
Magnetite was found on the mountain of Mount Ida.
Some minerals contain magnetite, which is atracted to magnets.
The formula for magnetite is Fe3O4. Magnetite is a mineral found in nature in the form of iron oxides. This ore is a natural magnet.
Magnetite is classified as a mineral, not a rock.
