2. Hematite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematite

   Hematite (/ ˈ h iː m ə ˌ t aɪ t, ˈ h ɛ m ə-/), also spelled as haematite, is a common iron oxide compound with the formula, Fe 2 O 3 and is widely found in rocks and soils. [6] Hematite crystals belong to the rhombohedral lattice system which is designated the alpha polymorph of Fe 2 O 3. It has the same crystal structure as corundum ...

3. Aqeeq - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqeeq

   A geode of chalcedony richly colored by hematite that gives it its rusty hues and marks it as Akik [contradictory] Aqeeq, akik or aqiq (Arabic: العقيق) means quartz in Arabic, and agate in Turkish, however in the context of rings usually refers to a ring set with a chalcedony stone. Well-known types of chalcedony are carnelian, agate, and ...

4. Rainbow lattice sunstone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_lattice_sunstone

   Rainbow lattice sunstone with hematite and magnetite equilateral triangle inclusions. Initially, the study of this gemstone in 1989 concluded that the inclusions were made up of ilmenite (for the iridescence lattice and black triangles) and hematite (for the orange platelets). [3]

6. Jaspillite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaspillite

   Jaspillite is typically a banded mixture of hematite and quartz common in the banded iron formation rocks of Proterozoic and Archaean age in the Canadian Shield. Jaspillite is also formed as exhalative chemical sediments in certain lead-zinc ore deposits, and as a hydrothermal alteration facies around submarine volcanism. It is used as a ...

7. Conglomerate (geology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conglomerate_(geology)

   Unlike paraconglomerates, orthoconglomerates are typically cross-bedded and often well-cemented and lithified by either calcite, hematite, quartz, or clay. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 5 ] The differences between paraconglomerates and orthoconglomerates reflect differences in how they are deposited.

9. Magnetite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetite

   Magnetite has been important in understanding the conditions under which rocks form. Magnetite reacts with oxygen to produce hematite, and the mineral pair forms a buffer that can control how oxidizing its environment is (the oxygen fugacity). This buffer is known as the hematite-magnetite or HM buffer.
