Pyrite and molten aluminum
Post Body
If I placed some smaller pieces of pyrite in the bottom of a sand-casting mold and poured aluminum in it, would it survive the exposure to molten aluminum temperatures? Would I have better luck with galena since it doesn't oxidize as readily?
This would be purely for cosmetic reasons, so "survive" means remain shiny.
