These particular fossils had all formed through a process called prioritization whereby pyrite a substance also known as fool's gold and composed of iron sulfide seeped into the tissues of the dead animals and mineralized them.

这特定的石都是通过一个称为优先的过程形成的，在这个过程中，黄铁矿（又称愚人金，由硫铁组成）渗入的组织并使其矿。

But the waste product that these chemolithoautotrophs make is often in the form of minerals, like rust or pyrite, like fool's gold, or carminites, like limestone.

但这自养生产生的废通常是以矿质的形式，比如铁锈或黄铁矿， 像愚人金， 或者像石灰岩这样的碳酸盐矿。

Oh, sulfur, rock salt, ashes, thunderstone, and pyrite, and pound fine in a black mortar at midday sun.

哦， 硫磺、岩盐、灰烬、雷石和黄铁矿，然后在正午的阳光下用黑色研钵研磨成细粉。

I think it was fool's gold or pyrite.

我认为这是傻瓜的金或黄铁矿。

So I think it's more likely that that's a sulfur breakdown product just because I think that the pyrite takes longer to form.

所以我认为这更有可能是硫分解产，因为我认为黄铁矿需要更长的时间才能形成。

Yeah I think pyrite takes quite a long time to form.

是的，我认为黄铁矿需要很长时间才能形成。

Fool's gold is iron pyrite. Iron pyrite is a brassy yellow mineral that is often mistaken for gold.

" Fool's gold" 是指黄铁矿。黄铁矿是有着黄铜色的黄色矿，人们经常把它误认成金子。
