In the production of needle-shaped magnetic iron oxide pigments by treating iron with a nitro-aromatic in the presence of alpha -FeOOH nuclei to form alpha -FeOOH particles and an amino-aromatic, and thereafter dehydrating the alpha -FeOOH particles and reducing them, the improvement which comprises forming the alpha -FeOOH nuclei at about 0 DEG to 90 DEG C. in a suspension of metallic iron, an iron-(II)-salt and a nitro-aromatic by adding a basic precipitant in about 10 to 95% of the amount required for the complete precipitation of the iron in the iron-(II)-salt. Advantageously the metallic iron comprises cast iron, the nitro-aromatic comprises nitrobenzene, the amino-aromatic comprises aniline, the basic precipitant comprises at least one of ammonia and a basically reacting alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or ammonium salt, the nuclei formation is carried out at about 10 DEG to 60 DEG C., and the basic precipitant is added in about 20 to 80% of the amount required for the complete precipitation of the iron in the iron-(II)-salt, additional iron and nitrobenzene being added to the suspension of precipitated nuclei to form the alpha -FeOOH particles.
