  2. Pyrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrite

    Pyrite detectors occupied a midway point between galena detectors and the more mechanically complicated perikon mineral pairs. Pyrite detectors can be as sensitive as a modern 1N34A germanium diode detector. [23] [24] Pyrite has been proposed as an abundant, non-toxic, inexpensive material in low-cost photovoltaic solar panels. [25]

  3. Volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanogenic_massive...

    The mineralogy of VMS consists of over 90% iron sulfide, mainly in the form of pyrite, with chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena also being major constituents. Magnetite is present in minor amounts; as magnetite content increases, the ores grade into massive oxide deposits. The gangue (the uneconomic waste material) is mainly quartz and pyrite ...

  4. Crystal radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_radio

    The most common crystal used is a small piece of galena; pyrite was also often used, as it was a more easily adjusted and stable mineral, and quite sufficient for urban signal strengths. Several other minerals also performed well as detectors. Another benefit of crystals was that they could demodulate amplitude modulated signals.

  5. Pyrrhotite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrrhotite

    Pyrrhotite (pyrrhos in Greek meaning "flame-coloured") is an iron sulfide mineral with the formula Fe (1-x) S (x = 0 to 0.125). It is a nonstoichiometric variant of FeS, the mineral known as troilite. Pyrrhotite is also called magnetic pyrite, because the color is similar to pyrite and it is

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_detector

    Galena cat whisker detector used in early crystal radio Precision crystal detector with iron pyrite crystal, used in commercial wireless stations, 1914. The crystal is inside the metal capsule under the vertical needle (right). The leaf springs and thumbscrew allow fine adjustment of the pressure of the needle on the crystal.

  7. Hauerite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hauerite

    Hauerite is a sulfide mineral in the pyrite group.It is the mineral form of Manganese(IV) disulfide MnS 2.It forms reddish brown or black octahedral crystals with the pyrite structure and it is usually found associated with the sulfides of other transition metals such as rambergite.

  8. Sperrylite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sperrylite

    Sperrylite on chalcopyrite with magnetite, Oktyabersky Mine, Norilsk.Field of view 2.2 cm. Sperrylite is a platinum arsenide mineral with the chemical formula PtAs 2 and is an opaque metallic tin white mineral which crystallizes in the isometric system with the pyrite group structure.

  9. Pyrite group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrite_group

    The pyrite group of minerals is a set of cubic crystal system minerals with diploidal structure. Each metallic element is bonded to six "dumbbell" pairs of non-metallic elements and each "dumbbell" pair is bonded to six metal atoms.
