The bioavailability of iron in the environment, and coupled metals, nutrients, and contaminants, depends on the stability of common Fe(III) minerals such as goethite (FeOOH) and hematite (Fe 2 O 3). At redox boundaries, iron isotopic tracer studies suggest that interaction with aqueous Fe(II) creates dynamic conditions of atom exchange (AE).

Goethite – WGNHS – UW–Madison
Stalactitic goethite from Montreal Mine in Iron County, Wisconsin. (Photo by W. Cordua.) Goethite is a common iron mineral. It often forms by weathering of other iron-rich minerals, thus is a common component of soils. It may form excellent pseudomorphs after the original minerals particularly pyrite or marcasite. Goethite may also be precipitated by …

The formation of iron oxide precursors (sulphate-containing compounds with iron as Fe 2+ in one case and Fe 3+ in another) has facilitated the precipitation of both magnetite and goethite in an aqueous medium.
Insight of Reduction Roasting of a Low-Grade Goethitic …
goethite ore is challenging because of low Fe content, high water content, and weak magnetic property compared to other iron-bearing minerals such as hematite and magnetite [8–10]. Besides, the goethite phase can encompass certain impurities such as aluminum, silicon, and phosphorous because of its high adsorption capacity [11]. Due to com-
