Yes, iron ore is considered a finite resource because it is a natural mineral that exists in limited quantities in the Earth's crust. Extraction of iron ore can lead to depletion of reserves over time if not managed sustainably.
Land with rich deposits of iron ore is called an iron ore reserve or iron ore deposit.
The chief form of iron ore is hematite, which is a mineral form of iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3). Hematite is a common iron ore that is widely used for extracting iron.
Perhaps the most common iron ore is taconite.
Examples of iron minerals: magnetite, hematite, goethite, siderite, limonite etc.
Obviousaly it depends on what part of the planet you are on but in Australia iron ore is plentiful.

Abundant, or plentiful
scarce.
Geothermal energy is not scarce it is plentiful because it is renewable.
Sand, grains of the mineral quartz (SiO2), is plentiful.

No. Bauxite is plentiful. It is the ore from which aluminum is extracted. Aluminum is one of the least expensive metals as it is so plentiful. Although bauxite is plentiful worldwide, very little of it comes from the U.S. One third of it comes from Australia. Brazil, China, Guinea, Jamaica and India are among the leading sources of aluminum
The ore of iron is called hematite.
