Pyrite, also known as "fool's gold," is a mineral composed of iron sulfide (FeS2). It has a metallic luster and a brassy-yellow color, resembling gold, which is how it earned its nickname. However, pyrite is not valuable like gold. It often forms cubic crystals and is found in a variety of geological settings, including sedimentary rocks, hydrothermal veins, and metamorphic rocks.
In various spiritual and alternative healing practices, pyrite is sometimes associated with attributes like protection, abundance, and vitality. Some believe it can enhance confidence and promote a positive attitude. However, these beliefs are subjective and not supported by scientific evidence.
