Summary:Takalar Regency has iron sand deposits along the coast. One of them is Sampulungan Beach, North Galesong District. In this study, an analysis of magnetic minerals of iron sand in Sampulungan Beach was carried out. The method used is X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Measurements were made using the Rigaku MiniFlex II type XRD engine. An analysis of sample diffractogram using PDXL 2 software. The qualitative analysis using search and match techniques and adjusted to the 2011 version of the ICCD card. The quantitative analysis using the RIR method. The results showed that the dominant minerals contained in the iron sand of Sampulungan Beach is magnetite (Fe3O4).
