Hematite can be produced in China, Australia, Brazil, India, Russia, Ukraine, Canada, Venezuela, South Africa and the United States of America. It has a very distinguished appearance, ranging from metallic grey to matte gold. It is not magnetic, even though its appearance gives off that stance. Pure Hematite has a composition of 70% Iron and 30% Oxygen, like most materials, it is rarely found with that pureness. 

Hematite can be made into all types of jewellery including rings. However, we recommend placing it in a deep protective setting otherwise it can be scratched very easily which will be noticeable due to its smooth and reflective surface. Another look we recommend is setting it in yellow gold to make the colours stand out and compliment each other. It is a very common material used for men's jewellery. The gemstone has a rating of 5-6 on Moh's Hardness Scale as it is rather soft and as mentioned before, can be scratched and/or damaged very easily. The best way to clean this stone is with mild liquid soap and warm water, using a soft cloth to avoid any damages.
