pyrrhotite can be reduced further toward troilite (stoichio-metric FeS) and, eventually, iron. The compound whose composition lies between troilite and the pyrrhotite in equi-librium with pyrite is a solid solution of sulfur in troilite. Any pyrrhotite stoichiometry within this range will form a stable compound, provided an appropriate sulfur ...
