Resonant magnetic scattering of circularly polarized synchrotron X-rays has revealed the site-specific magnetic moments at two non-equivalent Fe ion sites in Fe 3 O 4 . The energy-dependent peaks for the 026 and 266 reflections were attributed ferrimagnetically to the e and t 2 energy levels of Fe 3d at the A site, and to the t 2g and e g levels at the B site, respectively, having a sequence of t 2g , e, e g and t 2 in order of energy. This sequence agrees with the local spin-density approximation calculations in the literature [Anisimov, Elfimov, Hamada & Terakura, (1996). Phys. Rev. 54, 4387-4390], in which the spin-down band at the Fermi energy corresponds to t 2g . Resonant magnetic Fourier synthesis reveals the electron densities of the ferrimagnetic moments.
