40d Talk:Limonite
Perhaps this should be made more human readable? I dont know the format that DF saves the data in, but I from this info I would guess you get iron from the stone, but isnt that hematite? Inside the game, the stone is yellow, making me think its somehow connected to gold. Clearification needed. --Mizipzor 14:00, 4 November 2007 (EST)
Limonite is an ore consisting in a mixture of hydrated iron(III) oxide-hydroxide of varying composition. The generic formula is frequently written as FeO(OH)·nH2O, although this is not entirely accurate as limonite often contains a varying amount of oxide compared to hydroxide.
Together with hematite, it has been mined as ore for the production of iron. Limonite is heavy and yellowish-brown. It is a very common amorphous substance though can be tricky to find when mined with hematite and bog ore.
