Pyrite occurs in numerous shapes and habits.
Pyrite’s metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue give it a superficial resemblance to gold. As a result it earned the well-known nickname of fool’s gold. And it is also loved by many Feng Shui experts for its ability to attract the energy of wealth in addition to abundance.
It turns out that fool’s gold may not be so useless after all. New research finds that pyrite sometimes contains miniscule amounts of actual gold, however due to the miniscule microscopic size it cannot be seen with standard microscopes. .
