Magnetization curves of mixed Nb and FeSi based micrometric particles have been analyzed. The influence of the dispersion of Nb particles on the mixture remanence and coercivity has been studied above and below the Nb superconducting critical temperature. The hysteresis loop shows, at 5K and low applied fields, a decrease of both remanence and coercivity with respect to the one of pure ferromagnetic powders as well as a stair like profile. These features are explained as a consequence of the diamagnetic hysteresis loop of Nb giving rise to local stray fields acting on the ferromagnetic particles at its nearest neighboring
