Factors that weigh in the buying decision
Once at destination, Pyrite requires storage conditions suited to its presentation: dry environment, segregation from incompatible goods and FIFO rotation. Losses from poor stowage are the most common and the easiest to prevent.
The detail that makes the difference
Before closing a large volume of Pyrite, request a sample and an independent laboratory analysis. The cost of that control is minimal compared with a rejection at destination.
