Native iron

also called telluric iron, is an extremely rare element to find in its pure form: normally is associated with other minerals or with other elements. We can find high percentage of iron in the siderite meteorites associated with nickel and altough is one of the common primary element on the earth is almost impossible to find it pure.

This occurence of native iron ( surely with small content of nickel and other mineral ) comes from Ozervoe Intrusion a Siberian region ,in a basalt rock that have intruded coal beds The iron has been formed by a reaction with the coal.Has been also found in Greenland and Germany.
