Lepidocrocite from
Mark Mine, Weinbach, Limburg-Weilburg, Giessen Region, Hesse, Germany


Locality type:Mine
Classification
Species:Lepidocrocite
Formula:γ-Fe3+O(OH)
Comments:Heating up Lepidocrocite until loss of water leads to ferromagnetic Maghemite. Stronger heating then forms Hematite.
Goethite directly forms Hematite when heated.
Confirmation
Validity:Confirmed
Confirmation Methods:Wet Chemical
