What Is Hematite Made Of?
Hematite is an iron oxide mineral, and is thus an important iron ore.
The appearance of Hematite can vary widely because this mineral naturally can display colours ranging from reddish-browns to blacks and metallic steel greys.
Hematite, also known as Haematite, can conduct electricity.
Hematite inclusions are common in other crystals and minerals, for example Hematoid Quartz contains striking red Hematite mineral inclusions.
Hematite History
Hematite was named after the ancient Greek term for blood, owing to the rusty red colour it often displays in nature.
Over a hundred thousands of years ago, Pre-Historic Man used hematite-rich red chalk to make some of the earliest cave markings and cave paintings known to historians.
Hematite was used for protection in ancient civilisations: in Ancient Rome, it was sometimes used to decorate armour for soldiers to wear as they entered battle.
How Hard Is Hematite?
Hematite measures 5.5 to 6.5 on the Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness, meaning that Hematite is a relatively hard mineral, however care should still be taken to handle this mineral carefully to ensure it does not become damaged.
Hematite Crystal Care
Hematite is metallic, so will be rust if placed in water: therefore, Hematite is not a water-safe crystal.
When cleaning your Hematite crystal, use as little water as possible and dry the stone thoroughly afterwards.
Hematite Crystal Healing Properties
Hematite exudes a strong protective energy, and is useful as a Protection Stone for those looking for feelings of security, calm, and grounding.
Hematite Chakras
Hematite is most commonly used as a Root Chakra Crystal Healing Stone, as it is an incredibly grounding stone, owing to its heaviness and tactile weight.
Using Hematite in crystal healing can help bring one back to Earth.
