A Bit About Pyrite

Pyrite, often nicknamed "fool's gold," is a common sulfide mineral with the chemical formula FeS2. It's characterized by its brassy-yellow color and metallic luster. While it may resemble gold, it's significantly less valuable.

Pyrite is widely distributed and can be found in various geological settings, including igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. It's often associated with other sulfide minerals, coal, and gold deposits. Notable locations for pyrite include Spain, Peru, and the United States.
