In addition, under conditions where biogeochemical processes can occur, it is interesting to note that hematite is recalcitrant to microbial reduction due to its crystallinity, with only a thin surface layer of bioavailable Fe(III) present, 49 again suggesting its stability may be significant in, for example, oxic-contaminated land environments.
