Iron is rarely found in its pure form on the surface of the earth; as it tends to get oxidized when it comes in contact with atmospheric oxygen. For this reason, most of its ores are in the form of iron oxides.
Lesson Summary. Iron is an abundant metallic element, formed by stellar fusion. It is mined primarily from rocks containing hematite and magnetite. Although once used in its pure form to make a variety of items (thus, the Iron Age and Iron Horse), today its principal use is as the primary component of steel.
