Manganese(II,III) oxide Manganese(II,III) oxide Manganese(II,III) oxide is the chemical compound with formula MnO. Manganese is present in two oxidation states +2 and +3 and the formula is sometimes written as MnO.MnO. MnO is found in nature as the mineral hausmannite. MnO formed when any manganese oxide is heated in air above 1000 °C. Considerable research has centred on producing nanocrystalline MnO and various syntheses that involve oxidation of Mn or reduction of Mn. MnO has been found to act as a catalyst for a range of reactions e.g. the oxidation of methane and carbon monoxide; the decomposition of NO, the reduction of
Manganese Mines Mines Wildlife Management Area, a conservation area. The main industry is now farming. The name of this community derives from the discovery and mining of manganese here, beginning in the 1880s and ending in the 1890s. Also, Lafarge Canada operated a limestone quarry at Manganese Mines which closed in 1996. The limestone was used to produce cement.
