Ferrous minerals are those minerals which have certain magnetic properties due to the fact that they contain some iron content in the form of hydroxides, carbonates or sulphides. These minerals are very important for the development of the metallurgical industries of a country. Examples of ferrous minerals include haematite, magnetite, manganese etc.

Non-ferrous minerals do not show any magnetic properties due to the absence of iron. They are also more resistant to corrosion than ferrous metals. Some examples include aluminium, copper, brass, lead etc.
