Geological Background: Galena (PbS) is the most important ore of lead and is highly sought after for its metallic lustre, distinct cubic crystal form, and high density. It forms in hydrothermal veins, often in association with minerals such as quartz, sphalerite, and fluorite.
Quartz (SiO₂) is one of the most abundant and varied minerals on Earth, forming in a variety of environments and commonly occurring alongside ore minerals like Galena. Quartz develops as hexagonal prisms and is prized for its clarity and hardness.
This specimen exemplifies the classic hydrothermal paragenesis where metallic ores like Galena crystallize alongside silicate minerals such as Quartz in fractures and voids within host rocks.
