What is Yellow Ochre?

Yellow Ochre is a mineral that gets its natural yellow color from Limonite, a mixture of goethite, akageneite, lepidocrocite, and jarosite. Yellow Ochre is prepared by washing and separating the mineral from the sand and other impurities. The resultant sludge is then dried, and the pigment is ground. The primary color which gives a component to natural yellow ochre( ochre, yellow earth) is limonite - not a particular mineral but a combination of various iron-restraining minerals along with goethite, aragonite, lepidocrocite, and jarosite.

Iron oxides are fixed at elevated temperatures but not impenetrable in the case of acids. The pigment is appropriately fixed as is registered by the cave paintings until now in the same condition after many decades. Yellow Ochre is well suited with all other pigments and is frequently used in blending along with other paints.
