Colour Challenge word is Ochre.

Ochre comes in a variety of colors, from brown to red to yellow; and interestingly enough, it does change color under circumstances. Red ochre is associated with sesquioxide of iron while yellow ochre is hydrated iron oxide. Yellow or brown ochre can turn to red as the mineral picks up water and converts to hematite.
