Difference from other pyrite ore |
Pyrite is the most widely distributed metal in the crust. Usually it occurs as idiomorphic crystal with strong metal luster, which makes it easy to differentiate from other metal. It’s similar to chalcopyrite but shows lighter luster and a higher percentage of idiomorphic crystal. It is usually co-generated together with all kinds of pyrite such as chalcopyrite and chalcopyrite and exists in rhodochrosite in the form of grain crystal. |
