The absorption band near 0.5 μm has been found in the (3) Juno spectrum. This band is caused by d-electrons transitions of the Fe2+ ion in pyroxene. Taking into account the location of the asteroid on the spectral parameters diagrams for light stony meteorites, the author concludes that in the surface material of (3) Juno the olivine abundance is much less than the pyroxene one and a metallic phase is probably present.
