Magnesioaxinite, a rare and exotic mineral, has a nauseating smell that can turn heads. The culprit? Iron sulfide, otherwise known as iron pyrite.
Iron sulfide is a main component of magnesioaxinite, and it’s what gives the mineral its unique smell. Iron pyrite is often found in igneous and metamorphic rocks, and the smell is usually caused by the sulfide decaying as a result of oxygen exposure. The process generates hydrogen sulfide, a gas with a distinct smell similar to sulfur or rotten eggs.
The smell is so strong and unpleasant that it can irritate noses and throats when the mineral is exposed to air. Magnesioaxinite specimens are often housed in protective containers or sealed bags to avoid this effect.
The smell earned magnesioaxinite a place in history as one of the few minerals used in perfumery. Its pungent smell paired with its unique composition makes it an interesting subject for study.
Despite the nauseating smell, magnesioaxinite is highly sought after by collectors and mineral enthusiasts. The mineral boasts an impressive color palette and unique, glassy specular reflections, making it a must-have for passionate collectors.
