- Not to be confused with Peryite.
Pyrite,[1] also known as fool's gold is a mineral known for its resemblance to gold.[2][3][4]
Pyrite was utilized in Dunmeri ritualistic crafting, with firestrikers made from pyrite and flint adorned with imagery depicting Saint Vorys the Immolant.[1]
The phrase "fool's gold" was frequently employed across Tamriel as a metaphor to characterize something that seemed valuable but ultimately proved to be worthless.[2][3][4]
Foscarium, also resembling gold to some extent but significantly less valuable, has been illegally distributed by smugglers as counterfeit currency.[5]
