Under high pH conditions, the Mossbauer spectral parameters indicated that a small IVFe3+ component was initially present, which increased progressively with the oxidation of Fe(OH)2, maximizing with the onset of alpha-FeOOH formation. As alpha-FeOOH formation increased, the IVFe3+ component decreased, with alpha-FeOOH being the final sole phase. It is suggested that at the high pH values used, a component such as Fe(OH)4- may form, and that any Fe3+ produced by the initial oxidation of Fe(OH)2 is exsolved from the solid, then producing Fe(OH)4- until the formation of the more stable alpha-FeOOH begins. No apparent Fe(OH)3 phase was observed, as anticipated.
