Meaning and Origin:
Magnesia is a name derived from the Magnesian district in Thessaly, Greece. This region was known for its mineral resources, particularly a black mineral called magnetite. Magnetite is a type of iron ore that is strongly attracted to magnets.
The name "magnesia" was originally used to refer to this mineral. However, it was later also applied to other minerals found in the same area, including talc and brucite. Today, the term "magnesia" is used to refer to compounds containing the element magnesium.
