Prevent and stabilise pyrite oxidation, otherwise known as pyrite disease, pyrite rot, or pyrite decay. Read our guide to treating and storing pyritic fossils by clicking here. This method of preventing and neutralising pyrite decay is a genuine and successful approach, that will help ensure the longevity of your collection.
Pyrite disease or pyrite decay can completely destroy specimens. In the presence of oxygen, pyrite (FeS2) breaks down to ferrous sulphate (FeSO4) and sulphur dioxide (SO2). Where water or atmospheric moisture is present, sulphuric acid (H2SO4) is also produced as a biproduct.
