Chromium and ferrochromium are produced from the ore chromite (cf. section Aluminothermic reduction). Chromium carbides are materials of great technical importance. In the Cr−C phase diagram, three carbides with the compositions Cr 3 C 2, Cr 7 C 3 and Cr 23 C 6 exist (cf. also section Carbothermic reduction).
