Pyrite on quartz crystals. The mineral pyrite, or iron pyrite, is an iron sulfide with the chemical formula FeS . Pyrite is considered the most common of the sulfide minerals. Pyrite's metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue give it a superficial resemblance to gold, hence the well-known nickname of fool's gold. Carnegie Natural History. Pittsburgh, PA | |
