Pyrite, also known as Fools Gold is the most
common of the sulfide minerals. Pyrite is called
Fool’s Gold because of it’s pale brass yellow color
and glistening metallic luster, but it may be told from
gold by it’s cubic, dodecahedral, and octahedral
crystals and fine grain masses. Some interesting facts
about pyrite are that it has a greenish black streak, a
rating of 6.0 to 6.5 on the mohs scale, a specific
gravity of 5.00 to 5.02 , it creates a weak electric
current when heated and in some of it’s various form’s
it has been used in early fire arms and fire starting
kits. It’s biggest commercial use is in making sulfuric
acid but it is also important in nature for forming ore
and mineral deposits. Any questions?
