This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.

A lightly nontrivial cubic structure.
Seems none of these are are very hard,
but the harder ones with common elements are are not "uselessly" weak and soft for structural applications either.

  • FeS2 Pyrite - 5.0g/ccm - Mohs 6 to 6.5 - optically metallic, electrically conductive, mechanically nonmetallic
  • NiS2 Vaesite - Mohs 4.5 to 5.5 (6.25?) - optically not metallic not transparent
