A recent discovery in an area known as the "Ring-of Fire" located near Thunder Bay, Canada may be the largest source of Chromite yet to be discovered on Earth. by Government of Ontario, Canada. March 2010 --Stone (talk) 10:53, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
This article was moved to Chromite (mineral), but most uses of chromite according to Google refers to the mineral. Maybe the mineral page should be the main article under the name "chromite", with a hatnote for the compound?—Tetracube (talk) 19:02, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Moved it back, thanks for the hatnote. The article has been a mineral article for quite a while and the links here seem most (all?) mineral related. Vsmith (talk) 20:05, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The usage section does not tell me what it is used for. For example why did Germany need it during World War II? This is a good article about the actual substance and where it is found but says nothing about why it is, or is not, important. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 06:27, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The section on environmental effects, and the last paragraph on health effects, are not specific to chromite, but to chromium generally. I suggest that these belong in the Chromium article, and that a "See also" template should reference the appropriate section of that article. The portions discussing weathering of chromite and the resulting release of chromium into the environment is fine here. --Kent G. Budge (talk) 16:29, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As a part of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, this article was edited and updated. A Health and environmental impacts section was added to this article going into more detail about some of the impacts that chromite has. Both positive and negative impacts were added. Uses of chromite were also added to the applications section. References were updated, and the lead was also updated.Tamara Omar (talk) 22:14, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
