The main color giving component of natural red ochre (ocher) is composed of hematite (∝-Fe2O3). The term red ochre (ocher) or red earth describes various kinds of iron oxide pigments such as Venetian red, mars red, English red, Indian red. The nomenclature is by no means unequivocal and various authors have used the names differently.
Hematite is a more reddish variety of iron oxide, and is the main ingredient of red ochre. When limonite is roasted, it turns partially to the more reddish hematite and becomes red ochre or burnt sienna. The clay hills of Roussillon, Vaucluse, in Provence have been an
07.02.2012· Here we report significantly older iron oxide finds that constitute the earliest documented use of red ochre by Neandertals. These finds were small concentrates of red material retrieved during excavations at Maastricht-Belvédère, The Netherlands. The excavations exposed a series of well-preserved flint artifact (and occasionally bone) scatters, formed in a river valley setting during a late Middle Pleistocene full interglacial period
Iron ore is most commonly found as haematite (Fe 2 O 3), pyrite (FeS 2) and goethite (FeO.OH), or as a mixture of hydrated iron oxides known as limonite. In the Mendips, haematite and goethite commonly occur together as either massive, granular, often siliceous masses, or as altered, amorphous, loosely compacted, earthy varieties known as ochre. Two type of ochre occur: red ochre, which is

An international research team including Canadians has discovered the best-preserved evidence ever found of the earliest humans to inhabit the western hemisphere, dating from 12,000 years ago.
Red ocher is a natural earth containing clay tinted by iron oxide hydroxide and is composed of the mineral goethite with clay and quartz, and traces of accessory minerals, such chalk, gypsum and manganese carbonate. Luberon red ocher is made by calcining yellow ocher at high temperatures for a brief period. Historically, yellow ocher was designated by the mineral name limonite. Limonite
Iron deposits, collectively named ochre, are the most serious and widespread. Ochre deposits and associated slimes are usually red, yellow, or tan in color. Ochre is filamentous (from bacterial filaments), amorphous (more than 90% water), and has a high iron content (2 to 65% dry wt.).

Ochre deposits and associated slimes are usually red, yellow, or tan in color. Ochre is filamentous (from bacterial filaments), amorphous (more than 90% water), and has a high iron content (2 to 65% dry wt.). It is a sticky mass combined with an organic matrix (2 to 50% dry wt.) that can clog drain entry slots, drain envelopes, and the valleys of the corrugations between envelope and inlet
Red ochre—a mixture of iron oxide, sand, and clay—was a valuable resource during prehistoric times. As a pigment, ochre was used to make cave and rock paintings and for decorating bodies, but

Red Ochre and Clovis. By Chamois Andersen. Between 11,500 and 13,000 years, it is considered one of the oldest mining sites in North America. Discovered at the historic Sunrise Iron Mine, near Hartville, red ochre mined by Paleo-Indians was used as a pigment. Similar red ochre has also been recorded at prehistoric burial sites around the world.
Brief description of Red Ochre: Red ochre is composed mailnly of iron oxide, hematite which word comes from Greek, hema meaning blood. Used from prehistory and throughout history, these permanent pigments can be safely mixed with other pigments. Ochres vary widely in transparency; some are quite opaque, while others are valued for their use as glazes. Names for Red Ochre: Alternative names
Iron is one of the earth's most plentiful resources, making up at least five percent of the earth's crust. It can be found in water all over the United States and in parts of Canada. Though not detrimental to human health Minnesota Department of Health), iron in water can obstruct drainage systems and cause other problems for the homeowner. Specifically, if the level of iron in water is high
03.07.2019· Ochre contains a minimum of 12% iron oxyhydroxide, but the amount can range up to 30% or more, giving rise to the wide range of colors from light yellow to red and brown. The intensity of color depends on the degree of oxidation and hydration of the iron oxides, and the color becomes browner depending on the percentage of manganese dioxide, and redder based on the percentage of hematite.

Iron ochre will stick to plastic drainpipe with about 20% more force than to a fired clay tile. Experiments have also shown that compounds mixed into the plastic of a pipe increase or decrease the ability of ochre to stick to it. For example, tin compounds in the plastic made the ochre stick less while lead salts make it adhere nine times greater. Ochre becomes more adhesive as it ages and

DESCRIPTION OF IRON OCHRE Iron ochre is a yellow tan or red jelly-like substance most easily observed in open ditches and drain outlets. When wet, it is generally a red slimy substance. Upon drying, it shrinks becoming flakey. Iron ochre is composed of many compounds but mostly contains iron deposits mixed with bacterial slime. It is this slime which causes failure of subsurface drainage
Wilgie Mia, or Thuwarri Thaa (the place of red ochre), is located in the Weld Ranges, Western Australia and is a significant ochre mine. Estimated to be 27,000 years old, it is believed to be the oldest continually worked mine site in human history. The ochre is very high quality and was an important part of pre-colonisation Aboriginal economies, being traded as far as Ravensthorpe, Queensland
