New research shows naturally occurring mineral is an ‘unconventional superconductor’ when purified

Researchers from a variety of institutions have found a naturally occurring unconventional superconductor, miassite. Only impurities have thus far masked this mineral’s true nature, but lab testing and synthesis reveal its true potential.
