Pyrite
Pyrite is commonly called
Fools Gold
because of its similarity in color, shape, and habit to Gold. In the old mining days, Pyrite was often confused with Gold as they occur together, although Gold and Pyrite can very easily be distinguished by simple observation and testing of characteristics.
Pyrite occurs in all different shapes and forms. The smaller crystal aggregates may give off a beautiful glistening effect in light, and the larger crystals may be perfectly formed, including fascinating perfect cube and penetration twins and other bizarre crystal forms. The perfect cubes of Pyrite embedded in a matrix from the famous Spanish mines are especially treasured among collectors. Many of these specimens have fallen out of the matrix and have been repaired by having them glued back into the matrix.
Pyrite has the same chemical formula as the rarer mineral Marcasite, but it crystallizes in a different crystal system, thereby scientifically classifying it as a separate mineral species. Aggregates of iron sulfide (FeS2) where the crystal structure cannot be determined without complex analyzing material may be wrongly labeled by dealers. Some Pyrite specimens are labeled as Marcasite, and some Marcasite specimens as Pyrite.
Category: Sulfide mineral
Chemical formula: iron disulfide (FeS2)
Color: Pale brass-yellow, tarnishes darker and iridescent
Crystal habit: Cubic, faces may be striated, but also frequently octahedral and pyritohedron. Often inter-grown, massive, radiated, granular, globular and stalactitic.
Crystal system: Isometric Twinning Penetration and contact twinning
Fracture: Very uneven, sometimes conchoidal Tenacity Brittle
Mohs scale: hardness 6–6.5
