Iron ochre or iron ocher ( Ancient Greek: ὠχρός, pale yellow, orange) — at least three iron ore minerals, [1]: 134  common abrasives and pigments with a red-brown or brown-orange hue and the powdery consistency of ocher, were known under such a trivial name. The term “iron ocher” was primarily used among mineral collectors, geologists, miners and representatives of related craft professions. It may refer to:

  • Iron ochre or hematite [2]: 85  — Fe2O3, [3]: 212  a widespread iron mineral, one of the most important iron ores;
  • Iron ochre or limonite [2]: 85  — Fe2O3·Н2О, [4]: 30  a mixture of secondary natural minerals, iron oxide hydrates;
  • Iron ochre or goethite [4]: 30  — α-FeO(OH), a product of weathering of ores, a secondary iron mineral, the main component of limonite, is part of brown iron ores;
  • Iron ochre, brown iron ocher or lepidocrocite — γ-FeO(OH), [5]: 236  a secondary mineral, a product of the oxidation of iron ore minerals, found in brown iron ores;
  • Iron ochre or ferric oxide [3]: 212  — Fe2O3 ( oxides of iron), which also occurs naturally as the mineral magnetite;
  • Iron ochre or ferrihydrite [6]: 338  — Fe2O3·0.5H2O, is a widespread hydrous ferric oxyhydroxide mineral at the Earth's surface;
