Pyrite is naturally a golden-green gemstone with a glittery finish. The name "Pyrite" originates from the Greek term "pyrites lithos," meaning "the stone which strikes fire." This is because when Pyrite is struck against metal or another hard material, it creates sparks that can be used to start a fire. Pyrite has been found all over the world, including in Japan, Canada, Italy, Spain, Norway, Portugal, Russia, and Peru. Metaphysically, Pyrite is believed to hold healing properties that promote a more positive mindset and boost energy levels.
