Magnetite: Discover its Meaning, Uses And Benefits

Magnetite crystals is a relatively dense mineral, with a specific gravity of 5.18. This density is what makes it useful for industrial applications, such as the production of iron and steel. Magnetite is an important source of iron ore, and its high density allows it to be easily separated from other minerals in the ore.

What is black sand

The minerals that give black color to these rocks are predominantly pyroxenes (mostly augite), amphiboles (mostly hornblende) and iron oxides (mostly magnetite). Such sands are heavier than 'normal' light-colored sands and become very hot on a sunny day. Dark color and heavyness are both caused by high iron content.
