Magnetite and malachite (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ores

'magnetite and malachite' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ores that I've seen before include "Metal-bearing minerals" , "Sources of metal" , "Bauxite, haematite etc" , "Mined minerals" , "Mineral deposits" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
