Magnetite. Magnetite is strongly magnetic. It was used by the ancient Chinese to make the first magnetic compasses. The chemical formula is Fe 3 O 4, commonly called ferrous-ferric oxide, and is valuable as an iron ore. Magnetite reacts with oxygen to produce hematite, another iron ore. In crystalline form magnetite is usually octahedral.
Read MoreMagnetite, ideal formula Fe 3 O 4, is an intriguing mineral, and not only because it is magnetic.The formula could be written as Fe 2+ Fe 3+ 2O 4, which more precisely designates one of its peculiarities.It contains both ferrous (Fe 2+) and ferric (Fe 3+) ions implying synthesis, growth, and stability within an environment where oxidized and reduced states of iron are present and maintained.
