Pyrite
Pyrite is one of the few shiny, metallic gemstones available today. It is often referred to as Fool's Gold in the trade. A rare variety of pyrite found only in Russia is Rainbow Pyrite, which is a fairly recent find that is traded in drusy form. Pyrite is named for the Greek word for fire, since it's known to produce sparks when struck with steel. Pyrite is an opaque gemstone that is cut en cabochon and exhibits an attractive metallic luster. Pyrite deposits can be found in Peru, Bolivia, Romania, Sweden, Mexico, and the United States.

The shipping was fast. The gems I ordered look great and the price was good.
My experiences with Gemselect have always been quite satisfactory. The items are accurately photographed, a detailed description and provenance provided and the compare feature helps customers select the best gem for their needs. I have often recommended this source and will continue to do so.
I ordered several specific items from Gemselect. Items are always packaged very carefully to protect the content. Gemselect always encloses a card of authenticity which documents the entire stone, its size, clarity, etc. All of the items are as they were described. I would highly recommend them to anyone who’s in the market for a gem.
I frequently check the GemSelect website for a variety of gems. I've been very satisfied with the selection and quality of the top rated gems. All of the purchases I've made have turned out beautiful pieces of jewelry.
