Iron ore is a mineral substance which, when heated in the presence of a reductant, will yield metallic iron (Fe). It almost always consists of iron oxides, the primary forms of which are magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) and hematite (Fe 2 O 3). Iron ore is the source of primary iron for the world's iron and steel industries.

In 1975 production totaled 601,000 long tons, and in 1979 Texas exported 346 short tons of iron ore to foreign countries and 8,356 short tons domestically. Reflecting a strong energy-related demand for steel products, iron ore output in 1980 rose about 17 percent and increased in unit value per ton.
It is a common ore used for the extraction of Iron. Extraction of Iron from Hematite. Iron is extracted from hematite (Fe 2 O 3) in a blast furnace. In a blast furnace, the ore is led into the top of the furnace along with coke and limestone and the limestone is decomposed into the hot furnace, forming calcium oxide.
