Show & Tell - Lead & Zinc Ore

A new series of show and tell videos kicking off here with a closer look at the primary ores of lead and zinc; galena and sphalerite. Hope you find it useful, I don't pretend to be entertaining but fingers crossed you find this interesting!
Like all the films in this series, I have aimed the content at those looking to progress through the British Caving Association's LCMLA cave and mine leader award schemes. With any luck, the wider community of cavers and mine explorers may also find this of interest too.
* I appreciate there is a bit of white noise on this video. This is mainly down to the very cheap mic I have access to. A better quality one is on order for future films *
Many thanks for watching. Please leave a comment if you have any feedback or suggestions for future videos. If you find the films useful, consider subscribing and sharing as that really helps others find these films.

I appreciate there is a bit of white noise from the microphone. Awaiting delivery of a better one for future vids.

Plenty of galena in the mine where I work. We're a flourspar mine in Derbyshire. A large mineral vein through predominantly limestone. The lead is collected alongside the flourspar. The galena has unusually "bubbled" up in areas, thats the only way I can describe it, rather than it being a vein as such

I have a lot of galena deposit around my place
