Pyrite, called 'Fool's Gold', is an iron sulfide (FeS₂) with cubic or octahedral crystals and metallic golden luster. It forms in hydrothermal and sedimentary environments, found in Peru, Spain, and the USA. Historically, the Inca used it as mirrors, while alchemists linked it to the Secret Fire due to its sparking when struck.
