ANGLESITE (small cabinet)
$797.50 AUD
Anglesite is a lead sulfate mineral represented by the chemical formula PbSO4. It forms as an oxidation product of the primary sulfide ore, galena. Angite can be found in prismatic orthorhombic crystals and earthy masses, and it is isomorphous with barite and celestine. The mineral contains 74% lead by mass, resulting in a high specific gravity of 6.3. Its color typically ranges from white to gray, often featuring pale streaks; however, it may appear dark gray if impurities are present.
