• Formula: Fe₂O₃

• Description:

A purified, naturally occurring mineral called specular hematite (Fe2O3). It a blocky, heavy iron-based crystal and the most stable form of ferric oxide in a fully crystalline state. The product will not rust or oxidize as its crystalline composition makes it a stable form of ferric oxide (Fe2O3). No rust means it will not stain or clog metering valves. It is non-hygroscopic and will not absorb moisture. It is non-magnetic and will not stick to steel due to magnetic attraction, but it has a very weak susceptibility to magnetic forces.

• Typical Chemical Properties Available:

Composition of ore: Iron= 70%, Oxygen= 30%, and Crystalline silica= 0.5% max.

• Typical Physical Properties Available:

Lumps, granules, 10 x 20 mesh, 12 x 50 mesh, and various powder granulations custom size reduced down to ~ 1 micron
