While gold-filled and sterling silver are perfectly safe to wear in fresh water, we would advise taking your pyrite necklace off before showering or swimming. Please keep it in a  soft satchel to avoid any scratches.
 
Pyrite is a naturally occuring, brass-coloured mineral from, among other countries, Canada. The gold lustre of the minerals thus gave it the nickname "Fool's Gold". It has been used historically for decorative purposes and is also valued in modern times for its unique aesthetic appeal in jewelry and as a collector's mineral. 
 
To clean pyrite, do so much the same as your gold-filled and sterling silver jewelry; use warm water and mild dishsoap and gently wipe it clean with a soft cloth.
