Geological Information
Pyrite is an iron sulfide that forms cubic, pyritohedral, or octahedral crystals, with a brass-yellow colour and metallic lustre that has long led to confusion with gold, earning it the nickname "Fool's Gold." The name derives from the Greek "pyr," meaning fire, since pyrite produces sparks when struck against metal or stone; it was historically used as a fire-starting material across cultures. Polished pyrite mirrors were used by the Aztec and Inca, with archaeologically recovered specimens confirming the practice. No treatment is applied; this is a natural material. Pyrite can tarnish and release sulfuric acid compounds in humid conditions, so extended water exposure should be avoided. Sourced from Spain, Peru, Italy, Bolivia, and the USA.
