MINERALS INDEX
Lead |
| Pb |
| Isometric |
Lead is found, in minute amount, as scales, globules, and irregular branching masses, among the rare minerals of the Parker shaft, associated especially with the lead silicate roeblingite and with hancockite, native copper, and garnet. It was first noted by Foote (176). The author has seen it in several specimens, together with barite and the altered mica caswellite, and in one specimen as faint films in cracks in green willemite. Is also found in thread-like disseminations in rhodonite, which it stains gray, and as scales in veins of manganese serpentine.
