About Hematite –

Hematite is iron oxide, one of the world's most important iron ores, and it polishes to a heavy, mirror-bright steel grey. Yet grind it into powder and it turns blood red – a hint of the iron inside.

It forms in many settings, from vast sedimentary banded iron formations to hydrothermal veins and volcanic rocks, and as an alteration product of other iron minerals.

Cool Facts –

Hematite's name comes from the Greek haima, blood – it leaves a red streak and was used as a pigment in cave paintings 40,000 years ago.

It is the main ore of iron and the mineral that makes Mars red.

Polished hematite is heavy and cold to the touch because it is around 70% iron.

Red hematite powder coloured some of the oldest known cave art, and iron oxides like hematite are why Mars looks red.
