Hi guys,

Does anyone have any idea of housing estates or one off homes that were effected by pyrite in Leitrim or Sligo; especially Leitrim. You needn't name names . . .

My sister is in the middle of purchasing a home in Leitrim and her surveyor has drawn suspicion to pyrite in her report.

There is definitely suspicion of movement in the property but the auctioneer claims it is settlement only! The vendor has stated that the property was not effected by pyrite at anytime yet there seems to be a freshly dug trial-hole underneath the carpeting in the front living room. The surveyor noticed this not my sister.

The vendor claims not to know why this area of the property was excavated. The auctioneer claims no pyrite exists in Leitrim.

Is this nonsense or have there been cases?
