Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To manufacture magnetic metallic powder having a small specific surface area by reducing spindle-shaped goethite having a specified major axis size, a specified minor axis size and a specified axial ratio with a reducing gas. CONSTITUTION:Spindle-shaped goethite having 0.05-0.3mum major axis size, 0.015-0.04mum minor axis size and 3-15 axial ratio is optionally dehydrated by heat treatment to prepare iron oxide, and the goethite or the iron oxide is reduced with a reducing gas at about 300-500 deg.C. The starting material is coated with a sintering inhibitor such as potassium silicate before the reduction. The amount of the inhibitor is about 5-10wt% of the amount of the goethite. Magnetic metallic powder having 0.05-0.2mum major axis size, 4-10 axial ratio and 30-55m /g specific surface area is obtd. The specific surface area is measured by adsorbing gaseous N2 by the BET method.
