A large, by a factor of similar to 10(3)-10(4), enhancement of Hall ef
fect in cosputtered magnetic granular metals such as (NiFe)(x)-(SiO2)(
1-x) near the metal-insulator transition has been termed giant Hall ef
fect (GHE). It is associated with a high resistivity which increases s
lowly with decreasing temperature. We suggest that particle-size distr
ibution which is singular at zero and quantum size effects may be resp
onsible for these phenomena. From our scaling analysis of the relation
s between resistivity, and the ordinary and extraordinary Hall effects
, it follows that the extraordinary Hall resistivity rho(xys) scales w
ith mobility as-rho(xys)proportional to mu(-gamma) with the exponent g
amma approximate to 0.5, which is characteristically different from th
e predictions of both the skew scattering (gamma approximate to 1) and
the side jump (gamma approximate to 2) theories in homogeneous ferrom
agnets.
