Gold ore from n.g

Hi I found this on a trip to N. Ga.
Looks like gold to me.
Went to a mine tourist thing, you get a bucket of sand and rocks.
Question can I just use a hammer?

Looks like pyrite, but as Darkthirty says, take a hammer and bash it.
If it cracks it is not Gold.
If it flattens it gets interesting
