  2. Pyrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrite

    Pyrite oxidation by atmospheric O 2 in the presence of moisture (H 2 O) initially produces ferrous ions (Fe 2+) and sulfuric acid which dissociates into sulfate ions and protons, leading to acid mine drainage (AMD). An example of acid rock drainage caused by pyrite is the 2015 Gold King Mine waste water spill. [46]

  3. Dyakis dodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyakis_dodecahedron

    The dyakis dodecahedron only exists in one crystal, pyrite. Pyrite has other forms other than the dyakis dodecahedron, including tetrahedra, octahedra, cubes and pyritohedra. Though the cube and octahedron are in the cubic crystal system, the dyakis dodecahedron and the pyritohedron are in the isometric crystal system and the tetrahedron is in ...

  4. Dodecahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodecahedron

    The concave equilateral dodecahedron, called an endo-dodecahedron. [clarification needed] A cube can be divided into a pyritohedron by bisecting all the edges, and faces in alternate directions. A regular dodecahedron is an intermediate case with equal edge lengths. A rhombic dodecahedron is a degenerate case with the 6 crossedges reduced to ...

  5. Cubic crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_crystal_system

    A rock containing three crystals of pyrite (FeS 2). The crystal structure of pyrite is primitive cubic, and this is reflected in the cubic symmetry of its natural crystal facets. A network model of a primitive cubic system The primitive and cubic close-packed (also known as face-centered cubic) unit cells

  6. René Just Haüy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/René_Just_Haüy

    Pearwood model of rock crystal rhomboid, made by René-Just Haüy, Teylers Museum Integrant molecules form a pentagonal dodecahedron of pyrite, Traité de minéralogie (1801) Studying the fragments inspired Haüy to make further experiments in crystal cutting.

  7. Quasicrystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasicrystal

    A Ho–Mg–Zn dodecahedral quasicrystal formed as a pentagonal dodecahedron, the dual of the icosahedron. Unlike the similar pyritohedron shape of some cubic-system crystals such as pyrite, the quasicrystal has faces that are true regular pentagons TiMn quasicrystal approximant lattice

  8. Sodalite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodalite

    Hackmanite dodecahedron from the Koksha Valley, Afghanistan Hackmanite is a variety of sodalite exhibiting tenebrescence. [ 14 ] When hackmanite from Mont Saint-Hilaire ( Quebec ) or Ilímaussaq (Greenland) is freshly quarried, it is generally pale to deep violet but the color fades quickly to greyish or greenish white.

  9. Pseudomorph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomorph

    Silica pseudomorph after gypsum crystals and silicified serpulid polychaete tubes Pseudomorph of goethite after pyrite. In mineralogy, a pseudomorph is a mineral or mineral compound that appears in an atypical form (crystal system), resulting from a substitution process in which the appearance and dimensions remain constant, but the original mineral is replaced by another due to alteration, or ...
