AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pyrite, often called 'fool's gold,' is a mineral mainly composed of iron sulfide (FeS₂). It appears in a golden color that is often mistaken for real gold, but its structure and properties are very different. Pyrite has a shiny, metallic appearance and often forms in cubic crystals, giving it an attractive look.
This mineral can be found in various geological environments, including sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks. Pyrite can also be found in association with other minerals and is often used as a source of sulfur and iron.
Although pyrite is not as valuable as gold, it is sometimes used in jewelry, decorative objects, and even in the production of sulfuric acid. It also has some metaphysical and spiritual applications, where it is seen as a stone that can attract wealth and abundance.
Will be sent via max insured and registered mail.
