Premium Pyrite Iron Sulfide For Soil Remediation High-Quality Sulfur Source Supply
Iron Sulfide Pyrite, often called “Fool’s Gold” due to its resemblance to gold, is a distinctive sulfide mineral. With its unique metallic luster and regular crystal forms, it holds an important position in industries, collections, jewelry, and other fields.
- Stable Chemical Composition: Its chemical formula is FeS₂, with a constant ratio of iron to sulfur, ensuring stability in various application scenarios.
- Excellent Physical Properties: It has a Mohs hardness of 6 – 6.5, making it hard and resistant to wear; the density ranges from 4.9 – 5.2 g/cm³, giving it a noticeable heavy feel. The pale brass to golden yellow appearance, combined with a strong metallic luster, makes it visually appealing. The crystal forms are mostly cubic, pentagonal dodecahedral, etc., with regular and beautiful shapes.
- Industrial Field: It is an important raw material for sulfur extraction. After processing, it can be used to manufacture sulfuric acid, which is an indispensable basic chemical raw material in chemical, metallurgical, pharmaceutical, and other industries.
- Collection and Appreciation: Due to its unique crystal form and the cultural implication of “Fool’s Gold”, it has become a popular collection among mineral enthusiasts. Whether for personal collection or museum display, it is of great value.
- Jewelry Design: After careful cutting and polishing, pyrite can be made into unique jewelry. Its metallic luster can show a distinctive sense of fashion, which is deeply loved by designers and consumers.
- Scientific Research: In fields such as geology and mineralogy, pyrite is an important sample for studying mineral formation and geological evolution.





To ensure the quality of the product, it is recommended to store Iron Sulfide Pyrite in a dry and ventilated environment, avoid contact with strong oxidants, and prevent slow oxidation in humid environments that may affect its performance. During handling and use, please handle with care to avoid crystal damage.
