Hello Bernd, Frank, Mike, List,

Many thanks for the info about terrestrial troilite. Here (at work) I only
had a small reference textbook on mineralogy. Home I have some 2000+
mineral books and (almost all) journals, among which those books you are
mentioning. It may also well happen that I have some troilite specimen in
my extended mineral collection.
Sorry then for having perhaps asked an obvious question. This at least
shows that our List works well and efficiently.
Thank you all again for the pertinent documentation. The troilite problem
remains interesting in many aspects.

Cordially,

Zelimir
