Lead(II) sulfate primary lead sulfide ore, galena. A number of lead basic sulfates are known: PbSO·PbO; PbSO·2PbO; PbSO·3PbO; PbSO·4PbO. They are used in manufacturing of active paste for lead acid batteries. A related mineral is leadhillite, 2PbCO·PbSO·Pb(OH). At high concentration of sulfuric acid (>80%), lead hydrogensulfate, Pb(HSO), forms. Lead(II) sulfate can be dissolved in concentrated HNO, HCl, HSO producing acidic salts or complex compounds, and in concentrated alkali giving soluble hexahydroxidoplumbate(II) [Pb(OH)] complexes. Lead(II) sulfate decomposes when heated above 1000 °C: Lead(II) sulfate Lead(II) sulfate (PbSO) is a white solid, which appears white in microcrystalline form. It is also known as "fast
Silver Valley (Idaho) the Coeur d’Alene District veins. Galena is present in veins throughout the district. Sphalerite ((Zn,Fe)S) is the second most important ore mineral, present in at least small amounts in most veins. The sphalerite is an important source of zinc throughout the ore belts. The third most abundant ore mineral is tetrahedrite (Cu,Fe)SbS. However, the tetrahedrite is responsible for the majority of the silver produced by the Silver Valley, as it’s the tetrahedrite interspersed in the galena of the district that makes it so argentiferous. There are two alpine ski areas in the Silver Valley, both easily accessible from I-90. Lookout
