| rdfs:comment | - Molybdenite is a type of mineral, made up of molybdenum and sulfur, that is used by the Cardassians. The floors of the storerooms in Quark's on Deep Space 9 were made from hardened molybdenite. (DS9 novel: Devil in the Sky) In 2371, Koto reported to the awakened High Gul of the Crescent Order that he had found that the structural support members of Deep Space 9 used molybdenite and other alloys. (DS9 novel: Station Rage)
- Crystal structure of Molybdenite occurs in high temperature hydrothermal ore deposits. The element rhenium is always present in molybdenite as a substitute for molybdenum, usually in the parts per million (ppm) range, but often up to 1–2%. High rhenium content results in a structural variety detectable by X-ray diffraction techniques. Molybdenite ores are essentially the only source for rhenium. The presence of the radioactive isotope rhenium-187 and its daughter isotope osmium-187 provides a useful geochronologic dating technique.
