A step-by-step manual for geochemists: How to estimate the percentage of “FeS2” in pyrite mineral?
<p>P<strong>yrite</strong> (FeS2) is a prevalent mineral or can be titled as a rock-forming mineral.</p>
<p>It is also known as “fool’s gold” due to its metallic luster. It has a distinguished brassy yellow color that can resemble gold.</p>
<p>It has a chemical composition of iron sulfide (FeS2). It is commonly found in sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks.</p>
<p>Pyrite is often associated with other minerals, such as quartz (SiO2), calcite (CaCO3), and pyrrhotite (Fe(1-x)S).</p>
<p>It is a brittle mineral that can easily break into small pieces. Its hardness is 6–6.5 on the Mohs scale of hardness.</p>
