The discovery of troilite occurred in 1766.

Discovered by a man named Domenico Troili.

He witnessed a meteorite plummet near the town of Albareto, Italy.

(The meteorite was later named Albareto.)

So, he began to study this meteorite, carefully observing it.

And small particles of copper-colored minerals were discovered.

After analysis, it has been confirmed as a new mineral.

And named after him as Troilite (sulfide meteorite).

Established an enduring reputation in meteoritics.

In meteorites, whether iron meteorites or stony-iron meteorites, their traces are often found.

In fact, meteoric iron is a non-magnetic variety of pyrrhotite.

A mineral primarily composed of Fe S.
