THE MINERAL MINIUM Chemical Formula: Pb3O4, Lead Oxide Class: Oxides and Hydroxides Group: Spinel Uses: As a minor ore of lead, a pigment and as mineral specimens. Specimens Minium, which has been known as "red lead", is an oxidation product of other lead minerals. It forms in ...
lead is found in mineral form as galena (PbS), anglesite (PbSO4), and cerussite (PbCO3). It is easily malleable, smelted, and can be added to other metals to form alloys. Resistant to air and water corrosion, it does not mix easily with many solvents but will react with hot acids...

The most important commercial mineral is galena (PbS); others are cerussite (PbCO3) and anglesite (PbSO4). The main lead resource types are replacement stratabound deposits in carbonate rocks, volcanic sedimentary deposits, and hydrothermal replacement deposits, often associated with sulfides of zinc...
(36–40% solution). Lead nitrate is considered to be an activator in mineral processing. Although lead may activate sphalerite, similar to CuSO4, the use of Pb(NO3)2is limited to the activation of stibnite during beneficiation of antimony ores. Lead nitrate is the most widely used chemical ...
pigment for paints and inks; in oil and water colors; printing fabrics, decorating china and porcelain; in chemical analysis of organic substances; in traffic paints. Uses Lead chromate (PbCrO4) is found in nature as yellow crystals in the mineral crocoite. It can be produced by reacting ...
It also occurs in the mineral lanarkite, in which it is combined with PbO(2). Lead sulfate is a major component of more than 200 identified minerals(1). Pollution Sources: Lead sulfate forms in lead storage batteries during the discharge cycle(1), and in the paste mixing process in ...
