Red ochre, Fe 2 O 3 ·nH 2 O, takes its reddish colour from the mineral hematite, which is an iron oxide, reddish brown when hydrated. [7] Purple ochre is a rare variant identical to red ochre chemically but of a different hue caused by different light diffraction properties associated with a greater average particle size.
Red ochre takes its reddish colour from the mineral hematite, which is an anhydrous iron oxide, and the main ingredient of rust. It was one of the earliest pigments used by man. Hand prints made by using red ochre have been found in the Pech Merle cave in Southern France. They date to between 16,000 and 25,000 BC.

The anhydrous pigment has a dark purple-red or maroon color, hydrates' colors vary from dull yellow (yellow ochre) to warm red. [1]The iron oxide red is extremely stable: it is not affected by light and most chemicals (soluble in hot concentrated acids); heat only affects the hydrated variants (the water is removed, and the color darkens).
The FDA’s recent ban on Red Dye No. 3, set to take effect by 2027 for foods and 2028 for drugs, marks a significant step in addressing safety concerns over artificial food dyes in the U.S. food ...
