Thermopower studies of some cobalt-substituted BaZn-W-type hexagonal ferrites are undertaken as a function of composition and temperature over a temperature range 300 to 800 K. On the basis of the sign of the Seebeck coefficient, the ferrites under study are classified as n-type semiconductors. From the temperature variation of Seebeck coefficient a transition due to the reorientation of spins around 475 K has been noticed. Assuming that the conduction in W-type ferrites is predominantly due to the hopping of electrons between Fe2+ and Fe3+ ions of the spinel block, a mechanism to explain the phenomenon of charge transport in these ferrites is suggested.
