Dans les boucliers antécambriens on rencontre de puissantes formations de roches sédimentaires siliceuses et ferrugineuses, à magnétite, oligiste et martite [...] On les désigne sous des noms très variés : quartzites à magnétite ou oligiste, jaspillites ferrifères ou «banded iron stones» - c’est-à-dire roches ferrugineuses rubanées - ou encore taconites aux U.S.A., itabirites au Brésil. En général ces dépôts sédimentaires ferrugineux, qui contiennent les plus grosses réserves de fer mondiales, ne sont pas exploitables dans leur totalité. Seulement certaines portions peuvent être considérées comme gisements. 2, record 1, French, - fer%20ruban%C3%A9
