Haematite

Also known as iron lustre, specularite, red ironstone and red iron ore. A very common mineral from the class of oxides and hydroxides. The mineral surfaces can tarnish or take on a matt red colour due to weathering. The name comes from the ancient Greek and means blood, bloodshed or blood relative. In ancient Egypt, it was used as a peace stone. It was placed under the head of the dead to make the journey to the afterlife easier. The ancient Babylonians used it to win a trial. Young girls used it to protect themselves from the evil eye and in dreams it warned of possible dangers. In ancient times, it was regarded as a bloodstone, as it ‘bleeds’ when cut and leaves bloodstains. If you scratch the stone and then rub your finger over it, you will no longer find the scratch.
