Critical points that can be suppressed to zero temperature are interesting because quantum fluctuations have been shown to dramatically alter electron gas properties. Here, the metal formed by Co doping the paramagnetic insulator FeS2, Fe1-xCoxS2 is demonstrated to order ferromagnetically at x > x(c)=0.01 +/- 0.005, where we observe unusual transport, magnetic, and thermodynamic properties.
