Pyrite, or iron disulfide, is the most common sulfide mineral on the Earth’s surface and is widespread through the geological record. Because sulfides are mainly produced by sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in modern sedimentary environments, microorganisms are assumed to drive the formation of iron sulfides, in particular, pyrite.

The oxidation of pyrite was studied in batch experiments over a large range of pH (2.5−12), with trace oxygen.
view moreIron Pyrite (Ferric Disulfide) is a moderately water and acid soluble Iron source for uses compatible with sulfates. Sulfate compounds are salts or esters of sulfuric acid formed by replacing one or both of the hydrogens with a metal. Most metal sulfate compounds are readily soluble in water for uses such as water treatment, unlike fluorides ...

The sulfur dioxide produced during roasting would cause environmental consequences if released into the atmosphere.

view more3 · Pyrite, formally known as Iron disulfide, is the most abundant naturally occurring of the sulfide minerals. It has a crystal structure that resembles the fluorite structure. Iron disulfide has a yellow-brass, metallic luster that is sometimes incorrectly recognized as gold. Due to this mistaken identity it is often referred to as “fool’s ...
