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
Ore shoot for hundreds or thousands of feet horizontally and vertically. Such a structure could contain an area of enhanced metal content extending horizontally and vertically. This would be termed an "ore shoot." The existence of the ore shoot could be recognized visually in a tunnel or "drift" excavated along the structure, or by the assaying of rock samples cut from the walls and roof of the tunnel. Ore shoot In mining and geology, an ore shoot is a long seam of mineral or metal bearing rock that can be profitable to extract. The term may have originated in the 17th and
