No, galena is a naturally occurring mineral that is the primary ore of lead. It forms in hydrothermal and sedimentary processes in the Earth's crust.
Galena belongs to the sulfide mineral class. In its chemical composition, galena is primarily made up of lead sulfide (PbS).
No, we don't use galena is pencils. Galena is the primary ore of the metal lead, and this mineral, PbS, is recovered for that purpose. We also often recover silver as a byproduct of lead processing. It is graphite that is used in pencils, and the mineral graphite is an allotrope of carbon.
Galena is a mineral.
Galena is considered a non-silicate.
Galena is primarily made up of lead (PbS) and iron. The percent composition of lead (Pb) in galena is typically around 86.6%, while the percent composition of iron (Fe) is very low, usually less than 1%.

Some products that are made using galena are: bullets, batteries, gasoline, paint, and welding solder. Hope I helped!-anonymous
Galena is lead sulfide, an important source of the metal lead. Storage batteries, like the one in your car, have lead plate and posts- so it is likely that part of your battery was MADE from galena.
The metal made up of the ores zinc and lead is called galena. Galena is a sulfide mineral composed mainly of lead and can contain zinc as well.

Galena is a mineral.
Galena's cleavage is cubic.
Galena not a rock its a Economic mineral of lead. Formula of Galena is PbS. Galena and Sphalerite(ZnS) Found togather at Hydrothemal deposits.
