Lead & zinc metals are closely attached to each other and usually mined together from primary ore, for example, Galena (PbS) & sphalerite (ZnS) are associated in native ore. As the main formation of lead sulfide, galena is widely spread all over the world. The other source of lead sulfide are boulangerite/ jamesonite/ bournonite. Extraction of lead metal is almost fully pyrometallurgy-based process as given below.
