Pyrite’s brassy yellow color has led it to be often mistaken for gold and as such is commonly known as “Fool’s Gold”. As an iron sulfide, it is a very common mineral type that historically has been used as a source of sulphur or as a way to start a fire.
This specimen is special due to the size of its crystals. Known as druzy pyrite, the minute crystals catch the light and send out an array of sparkles. Almost like a disco ball!
