Of some eerpentioes. The commonest ore, and the chief source of the chromium compounds, is the chrome iron are or chromite, which occurs in the Umls' and Asia Minor, California. Australia, and other localities. This is magnetic iron ore, in which the ferric oxide is rel by chronic oxide, its composition being Chrome inon ore crystallisee in octahedra of six gr. 41 it has a feeble metallic lustre, is of a gmyieh-hlack colour, and gives a brown powder. It is very ieehly acted on by acids, but when fund with potassium acid mlphete it gim a soluble mm, which contains a chromic salt, besides potnninm sulphate and terms sulphate. In practice the treatment of chrome iron ore is mainly carried on for the preparation of chromite; and not of chromic alts, and therefore we will trace the history of the element by beginning with chromic acid, and especially with the working up of the chrome iron ore into potanimn diamante, u the most common salt of this acid.
