Pyrite is a sulfurous mineral with the chemical formula FeS2, also known as "mad gold."

The legend of "Mad Gold": A popular legend related to pyrite says that it was used by ancient alchemists in search of the philosopher's stone and gold. It is said that they searched for gold, but often returned with pyrite because it has a shiny appearance similar to that of gold. They called it "crazy gold" because it was apparently gold, but in reality it was just pyrite, a stone that has no gold value. However, this legend has also been interpreted in a deeper sense, suggesting that true treasure and wealth are often hidden in things that do not always look like such at first glance, and that true gold is not always what you see with your physical eyes, but can be found in your inner wisdom, knowledge, and experiences.
