No. Its a mineral that's ground up into micron sized particles.

I'm not sure if 'testing' is the same as 'seeing' but here are the test results from
Petroleum Quality Institute. Shaeffers is loaded with moly - one of the highest levels in use, compared to
other popular oils tested.

Oil analysis doesn't reveal the type of molybdenum in use. Yes, organic moly is different. It's not clear what you mean by 'works differently'.
Organic moly and mos2 don't work the same way. Organic moly can only leave a layer 1 molecule thick which is quickly worn off at start up. Mos2 layers and once cooled becomes very hard so at start up the layer is more durable.
That's what I mean by different.
