Actually there are lots of elements which are commonly found only in compounds rather than in their pure elemental form. Sodium, magnesium, calcium, hydrogen come immediately to mind, but there are lots more.
Graphite is used to make pencil lead, but it is not a form of coal.
tin and lead
Lead sulfate (PbSO4) is an ionic compound. It consists of a lead ion (Pb2+) and a sulfate ion (SO42-) bound together in an ionic bond. The structure of the sulfate ion is a sulfur atom surrounded by 4 oxygen atoms.
Elements are examples of pure substances. Lead is an element, which means lead is pure.

Although the element lead is found in a variety of minerals, the mineral galena is the most common ore used in lead extraction.

Sulphuris Acid is most commonly found in lead-acid car batteries.
Lead is an element and a mineral, though it is seldom found in it's native or uncombined state, much, much more commonly found, for example, in combination with sulfur, as the mineral galena.
Normally lead metal will have a cubic face centered lattice structure.
Stainless steel does not contain lead. The main component of stainless steel is iron. Stainless steel contains manganese, chromium and nickel in varying amounts. Traces of nitrogen and sulfur may also be present The carbon content varies from type to type.
Galena (lead sulfide) is commonly found in silver-producing regions. In Mexico, the northern states of Zacatecas, Chihuahua and Durango are home to the largest mines of silver and lead found in that country, with 68% of the national production.
Lead is in the isometric crystal system.
No, the lattice structure of diamonds is different from the lattice structure of lead or graphite, although both are formed from carbon. (The answer assumes that you are referring to pencil lead and not the chemical lead: Pb.)
Commonly called Lead
lead is found in mining of rocks if like u were to go mining u could find lead but only at certain spots!
