Yes it's not unusual to find gold (Au) associated with pyrites (fools gold). A rock yielding visible pyrites can often have gold in ultra-fine particles mixed with it.

Some collector specimens are quite valuable, especially the perfect cubic shaped crystals from Spain. Pyrite is also valuable as an ore of sulfuric acid.
