red ocre

JackCrafty:
I get all my pigments from naturalpigments.com.  I prefer red iron oxide over red ocre.  The iron oxide is not gritty and mixes well with any medium.

I found two different places on old strip mine ground where there are seeps coming out of the hillside and the wet ground from them is bright red for several yards below the seeps. Would that be red ocre or iron oxide or possibly something entirely different? Any sure way to tell? I know nothing about pigments but have been wondering if i could use it some way.

Scowler:
Found some at www.earthpigments.com

sonny:
I've bought pigments locally from a pottery supplier. Well worth checking the phone book as there could
be one right around the corner...

Dharma:
Clear Creek Trading Company in Sedona, AZ has excellent red ochre.
