Ferrous carbonate serves as a precursor for cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries (such as lithium iron phosphate), thereby contributing to the enhancement of the batteries’ electrochemical performance.

In the pharmaceutical field, ferrous carbonate has historically been utilized as a hematinic agent (anti-anemic drug) for the treatment of iron-deficiency anemia. By replenishing the body’s iron reserves, it promotes hemoglobin synthesis, thereby alleviating the symptoms of anemia.

Upon high-temperature thermal treatment, siderite decomposes to yield magnetic minerals (such as magnetite). Leveraging this characteristic, researchers have developed a novel class of magnetic daily-use ceramics. These ceramics not only retain the physical properties of conventional ceramics but also possess magnetic properties; they can be utilized in the manufacture of health-promoting products—such as magnetized cups and magnetic water storage vessels—or employed as magnetic construction materials.
