\"WALLMANN (1990) calculated for pore water systems that the concentration of non-sulphidic complexes and minerals were not important for heavy metal binding compared to sulphidic species\"

Also \"sulphide\" as above suggested

\"One example of such is an old, forgotten Heddle locality in Kirkcudbrightshire which has rendered previously unrecorded, crystallized sulphide species, notably tetrahedrite\"

The postulated catalytic mechanism involves chemical sorption of substrates at the palladium surface. Substrates, i.e., ethylenes then react with hydrogen to form non-reactive products that then desorb from the surface. Poisoning may occur due to irreversible sorption of sulfidic species that block reactive sites. Sulfides can be produced biologically by sulfate reducing bacteria. It has been shown that oxidative agents such as aqueous chlorine remove sorbed poisons and restore the palladium surface to its initial state.

sulphide minerals/materials

Explanation:
Species is used for biology, but not for mineral groups. I would either go with minerals or materials.

Examples:

Evaluation of Existing Diesel Particulate Matter Sampling and ...
... This led to the suspicion that oxidation of sulphide minerals on the filter caused
the sample to gain in mass during the ashing process involved in RCD analysis ...
