IRON OXIDE POWDER 5 Pounds Native Iron, course," IRON FILINGS" 12 to 20 mesh

Description

NATIVE IRON ORE POWDER
Up for auction is Native Iron powder. This material collects in streambeds
during rainstorms. Originally from the Iron rich mountains, the flowing water
brings this down and it collects in areas where the terrain forms natural sluce
beds where it deposits. This is not pure Iron but rather Iron ore. It has been
painstakingly collected from dry stream beds using magnets. Once sifted it is
cleaned two more times by magnetic separation. Being a natural product it is
possible to find grains of sand mixed in with the Iron even after three cleanings.
This material glistens in the sun. This is strongly attracted to a magnet
but is not magnetic in itself. A magnet was used in the photos.It is 99%+ pure
Iron ore and ideal for science demonstrations with magnets. I have used it in
pyrotechnic fountains and was impressed by the rich spray of Orange sparks.
I finally got the chance to try this Iron in an aerial shell and was pleased with the
results. As the shell exploded the Iron Oxide ignited and burned as it fell through
the air to the ground (it almost reached the ground). The effect of a myriad of
Orange sparks falling through the air was quite pleasing.
Also ideal for use in metaphysics.
Particle size is 12 to 20 mesh.
This auction is for FIVE POUNDS (80 ounces).
