Solution
Siderite has very less percentage of iron.
Explanation:
siderite is an inferior, low-grade iron carbonate mineral (FeCO3) with a very low percentage of iron usually less than 40% to 48%. It contains many impurities, making large-scale commercial mining less economically viable than high-grade ores.
