Pyrite Framboid Formation; Laboratory Synthesis and Marine Sediments

Sweeney, R. E., Kaplan, I. R.·1973·Economic Geology

Abstract

Pyrite synthesis Was examined in the laboratory, and the chemical, crystallographic and textural results were compared with naturally occurring pyrite in marine sediment. The path of pyrite formation begins with reaction of hydrogen sulfide and dissolved iron. The first product is either amorphous iron sulfide or mackinawite with composi-tion FeS0.9. In the presence of limited oxygen, this can change to hexagonal pyrrhotite, FeS•.•. Further reaction of either of the above phases with elemental sulfur will pro•duce greigite, FeaS4 and, finally, pyrite, FeS•. The greigite assumes the morphological character of spherules. Pyrite framboids were found to form only on spherical nuclei. Thus, both chemical and textural evidence is provided for the pathway of pyrite formation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
