Mineralogical siting of platinum-group elements in pentlandite …

The Bushveld Complex in South Africa hosts the world's largest resources of platinum-group elements (PGEs), which are mainly mined from three ore bodies, namely the Merensky Reef, the UG-2 chromitite, and the Platreef. In these ores, the PGEs are bimodally distributed, occurring both as discrete platinum-group minerals (PGMs) and …

Pentlandite

Pentlandite is a mineral consisting mainly of iron-nickel sulfide, in which the ratio of nickel to iron is usually close to 1:1. Its chemical formula is written as (Fe,Ni) 9 S 8.It also contains minor proportions of cobalt.It has a yellowish bronze color. It was named after the Irish scientist Joseph Barclay Pentland (1797-1873), who first noted the mineral.
