It has been discovered that there is a set of micromorphological structures on the surfaces of pyrite crystals, including pisolitic hillocks, lotus root-like hillocks and spiral steps.

文摘A careful scanning tunneling microscope (STM) observation has been made on the micromorphology structure of the crystal faces for a group of pyrites which include two types of pyrite specimens: natural pyrites, from the different stage of hydrothermal ore deposits and artificial crystal of pyrite.
