Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
One of the most important industrial iron ores is Hematite, while the finest one is Magnetite, not limonite. In India, iron industries are considered the backbone of industrial development. There are different qualities of ores found in India, and the finest one is Magnetite which used to have the highest content of iron, around 70 percent, but most of the industries used the second quality of iron ore, i.e., Hematite, although it contains 50 to 60 percent of iron content. And limonite is also iron ore, but the iron content is very less, around 40 to 60 percent.
