Pyrite is a brass-yellow mineral with a bright metallic luster. It has a chemical composition of iron sulfide (FeS2) and is the most common sulfide mineral. All that glitters isn’t gold, but this glamorous stone is just as good. The pyrite crystal is a must-have piece for your office or workspace because it’s the ultimate symbol of wealth and good luck. It’s also known as “Fool’s gold” because of its shimmery golden hue, the color of gold and the midday sun at its full strength. As a talisman, Pyrite is a unique protector, drawing energy from the Earth through the physical body and into the aura creating a defensive shield against negative energies, environmental pollutants, emotional attack and physical harm.
