context_page_description: Magnesioferrite is a magnesium iron oxide mineral, a member of the magnetite series of spinels.
  Magnesioferrite crystallizes as black metallic octahedral crystals. It is named after its chemical composition of magnesium and ferric iron.
  The density is 4.6 - 4.7, and the diaphaniety is opaque. Occurs as well-formed fine sized crystals or massive and granular.
  Its hardness is 6-6.5. It has a metallic luster and a dark red streak.
