Why the pyrite stone is cube shapes?
Yes, pyrite does form cubic crystals. Pyrite can form different types of crystals, including, cuboid crystals, raspberry-like framboids, T-shaped crystals, and dodecahedral crystals.
Is pyrite a crystal?
Pyrite is a mineral that can form crystals.
What year was pyrite discovered?

Why does homemade pyrite look more like lava rock than natural pyrite?
It is because homemade pyrite cools within a few second, not giving it enough time to for crystals, unlike natural pyrite, which had years to cool underground giving it enough time to form crystals
Where did the pyrite mineral come from?
That is a rather vague question. Pyrite can be found in virtually every rock type as well as formed within bacteria and meteorites. So you could say it will form almost everywhere given the right conditions.

Can gold and pyrite be distinguished by color?
Mostly, yes. Gold has a deep yellow colour, while pyrite often has a silvery haze over it. If you have a large sample, it's even easier, as pyrite forms perfect cubic crystals.
Why does natural pyrite look different from homemade pyrite?
Because of the pressure and time used to create natural pyrite, more crystals develop, giving it that shiny, crystalline look, whereas man made is created in such a short amount of time that there isn't a lot of gold, and once it dries, many colors show after rust appears on the pyrite.
