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
Galena, Oregon office moved from the current site of Galena two miles up Elk Creek to their mine. The new post office was named for a body of galena ore in the area, and the town was renamed as well.
