WONDERS OF HEMATITE:
Hematite is the most important ore of iron and an anciently discovered mineral. Traces of hematite minerals from almost 200,000 years ago can be found in Pinnacle Point, South Africa. Hematite residues have been in ancient graves, and the ancient Egyptians placed objects made of hematite in their tombs.
Did you know you could paint with hematite? The name Hematite is derived from the Greek word for blood, 'haima'.This is because of the reddish-brown color that hematite produces when ground into a powder.
Hematite concentrations have been found on Mars. In 1998, the Mars Global Surveyor spotted large deposits of the mineral near the equator of the planet. Since Hematite is formed by sedimentary deposits the discovery was the first mineral evidence of water possibly having existed on the planet.
Hematite has a chemical composition of Fe2O3 (ferric oxide). It's made up of about 70% iron and 30% oxygen. Around 2500 million years ago, the bacteria in the ocean produced huge amounts of oxygen that would combine with iron oxides in the seawater. These iron minerals would slowly collect on the seafloor to create layers of magnetite and hematite.
Hematite is not naturally magnetic on its own but can have some magnetic properties if it contains magnetite (a strongly magnetic iron ore).
Throughout history, hematite has been used in paint-making to healing. The use of hematite for paint has been around for centuries. The ore was crushed and mixed with liquid for creating cave paintings or pictographs. Some pictographs have been dated to be up to 40,000 years old.
Hematite cabochons and beads are used for fashioning jewelry pieces.The ore was once popularly set in Victorian mourning jewelry.
In Britain in the Middle Ages, it was believed that the ore would preserve the blood of dead soldiers and protect living ones by giving them newfound energy. For similar reasons, Ancient Egyptians used hematite for carving out talismans and medallions.
One controversial use of hematite, and other rocks and ores, is as a 'healing stone'. The claims that healing stones can restore and strengthen the physical body, or have any effects on the body for that matter, are not scientifically backed up. So far as research goes, healing stones have a placebo effect at most.
