Goethite is the most common of the iron oxyhydroxides and is antiferromagnetic with a disordering (Néel) temperature of about 120°C (Hedley, 1971 ). Goethite has weak saturation magnetization and very high coercivity ( Hedley, 1971; Rochette and Fillion, 1989 ). It dehydrates to hematite at about 300°C.
For cation sorption on goethite, only a single type of surface site had to be considered. This is in contrast to the need for two site types (small concentration of higher affinity sites, and large concentration of lower affinity sites) to model cation sorption on HFO [18].The more ordered, crystalline structure of goethite appears to present less diversity …
Goethite is a common mineral, and is a frequent matrix material for other more aesthetic minerals. It is usually a dark, uninteresting mineral, though specimens from a handful of locations (especially Colorado) are remarkable for their delicate and beautiful crystal growths and velvety botryoidal growths. Goethite is also frequent as black crystal sprays …
Twin formation in hematite during dehydration was investigated using X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM). When synthetic goethite was heated at different temperatures between 100 and 800 °C, a phase transformation occurred at temperatures above 250 °C. The electron …

Goethite. Goethite is a common weathering product of iron-bearing minerals like magnetite, pyrite and siderite. It is an oxyhydroxide or iron — FeO (OH). The most characteristic feature of this mineral is brown to …
Goethite is the only reaction product. The calculations predict that weathering produces jarosite or alunite after goethite when >0.04 moles of oxygen have been consumed per …
A weathering product of numerous iron-bearing minerals. Goethite may crystallize from a precursor - a not approved species called 'proto-goethite'. May also form due to …
The results obtained for goethite 25 are typical for pure goethite. The results obtained for goethite 140 reveal two phases: goethite (dotted line in Fig. 2 b) and hematite (solid line). The presence of a minor amount of hematite in well-crystallized natural goethite has been reported [5]. The spectrum is a superposition of two components, and ...
The effect of Rhodopseudomonas pallustris bacterium on the sorption of 16 isotopes of lanthanides by quartz and goethite at different pHs values was studied. pH of sorption solution and affinity of elements to surface seems to be most important parameters in the interactions between metal ions and surfaces of biological and mineral sorbents. At …
Furthermore, the ratio of adsorbed Mn(II) to total adsorbed Mn on goethite exceeded that on ferrihydrite (Fig. 5 E, F). It was similarly demonstrated that less adsorption by goethite leaved more residual As in solution. It was similarly demonstrated that the lower rate of adsorption to goethite resulted in more residual As remaining in solution.
Goethite is the main constituent of limonite which is formed by the prolonged weathering of iron-bearing rocks and ores. Limonite is an important source of iron.
Wheal Drea, Botallack, St Just, Cornwall, England, UK. Dimensions: 7 cm x 4.5 cm x 3.5 cm. Botryoidal goethite with well developed concentric-radiating structure and a shiny black surface that is partly overgrown by fine-grained quartz. Small dark brown smoky quartz crystals sit in the centers of the nodules - a classic association at Wheal Drea.
The morphology of goethite was characterized by SEM and TEM, respectively. As shown in Fig. 1 A-C, goethite displayed acicular shapes with an average width and length of 178 ± 62 nm and 2.42 ± 0.88 μm, respectively.The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of goethite showed characteristic peaks at 21.26, 27.80, 36.67, and …
The Goethite has the standard moderately deep silvery-gray coloration and dull metallic luster of its species, but is coated with some type of material that gives it a colorful and beautiful iridescence. The dominating colors are red, yellow, and green. The specimen is hot-glued into a cubic plastic specimen box for display.
