The 20 pages that link to Hematite, each with the reason it gives.

• Iron oreBroader topic: Its high iron content makes hematite a major source of iron ore.

• Banded iron formationBroader topic: Hematite is one of the iron minerals that gives these deposits their iron-rich bands.

• Iron oxideBroader topic: It is a stable iron(III) oxide and a major source of iron ore.

• MagnetiteCompared with: Unlike magnetite, hematite is not strongly ferrimagnetic under ordinary conditions.

• OchreRelated: Its red iron oxide is a major source of red ochre.

• GoethiteCompared with: Unlike goethite, hematite contains no hydroxyl groups.

• Iron(III) oxideBroader topic: It is the common crystalline mineral form that gives this compound its familiar natural occurrence.

• GalenaCompared with: Unlike galena, hematite is an iron oxide and often produces red pigment.

• Iron(II) oxideCompared with: Hematite is a major iron ore and a higher-oxidation-state contrast to FeO.

• Cylinder sealRelated: Hematite was a valued material for making cylinder seals.

• IronmakingBroader topic: Hematite is a major iron ore and a common furnace feed.

• RustRelated: Hematite can occur among iron corrosion products, though rust is not a single pure mineral.

• MaghemiteCompared with: It shares maghemite’s ferric chemistry but has a different crystal structure and magnetic behavior.

• Oxide mineralBroader topic: Hematite is a common oxide mineral and a principal iron ore.

• IlmeniteRelated: Hematite shares ilmenite’s rhombohedral structure and can form solid solutions with it.

• Iron(II,III) oxideCompared with: Hematite contains iron(III) rather than magnetite's combination of iron(II) and iron(III).

• LimoniteCompared with: Unlike limonite, it is a distinct mineral species with a defined composition.

• Earth pigmentBroader topic: Hematite gives many earth pigments their red hues.

• SiennaRelated: Heating sienna promotes redder iron-oxide coloring associated with hematite.

• Rock magnetismRelated: It can preserve stable remanence, sometimes through geological timescales.
