Study on the jarosite mediated by bioleaching of pyrrhotite using Acidthiobacillus ferrooxidans
Precipitation of jarosite is a very important phenomenon that is observed in the bioleaching of pyrrhotite by Acidthiobacillus ferrooxidans (A. ferrooxidans).

Abstract The presence of minor minerals is a key factor distinguishing meteorite types, as they provide valuable insights into the formation processes, surface conditions, and evolutionary history of their parent bodies. In Martian nakhlites, one of the most distinctive minor phases is iron‐titanium oxides forming characteristic skeletal textures ...

An Efficient Method for Removing Fluorine from Fluorine-Bearing Minerals in Pyrrhotite
Pyrrhotite is a key raw material for sulfuric acid production, and its product quality involves technical indicators for elements such as fluorine, arsenic, lead, zinc, and carbon, among which fluorine content is subject to the most stringent limits ...

Abstract This study documents micro‐ to nanoscale observations of primary nebular and secondary parent body iron sulfides in the CR1 GRO 95577. Despite the extensive alteration of the bulk sample, some primary sulfides managed to avoid alteration, having originally formed in the solar nebula during chondrule formation by either fission‐sulfidization or

Stardust Mine: A 2024 gabbroic shergottite from Arizona, USA
Abstract This study provides an initial characterization of Stardust Mine, a fresh gabbroic enriched shergottite collected in Arizona, USA, in September 2024 and is the first Martian meteorite to be unequivocably collected on US soil. Analysis was conducted on the type specimen and finds that Stardust Mine is composed of equal proportions of pyroxene ...

Determination of iron sulphides in roofing slates from the north west of Spain
The most important production of roofing slates in the world is quarried from the Ordovician formations of the Truchas Syncline, which have the largest amount of working quarries. Roofing slates, sometimes, have crystallized iron sulphides such as pyrite,

The anomalous demagnetization of pyrrhotite [PDF]
SUMMARY The anomalous behaviour of pyrrhotite-bearing rocks from the Pennine Orefield, northern England on alternating field demagnetization is studied with particular reference to rotational remanent magnetization (RRM). Using a heat treated sample, it is demonstrated that a two-axis tumbling demagnetizer is capable of producing a repeatable RRM ...

Mineralogy, mineral chemistry, and redox equilibria in ten aggregate particles from asteroid Bennu
Abstract Examination of 10 Bennu aggregate particles has revealed the presence of many phases which taken together can provide constraints on the oxygen fugacity (fO2) of Bennu samples. Phyllosilicates (saponite and serpentine), carbonates, oxides (magnetite, chromite), sulfides (pyrrhotite, pentlandite), phosphate (hydroxyapatite, Na‐Mg‐phosphate ...

Abstract Volatile‐rich xenolithic clasts in different types of brecciated meteorites represent unique pristine solar system material. This study investigates the maturity and thermal history of organic matter using Raman spectroscopy and aqueous alteration effects using infrared spectroscopy in the matrix of 15 volatile‐rich clasts (C1 and CM‐like ...
