Galena is the main ore of lead, used since ancient times, since lead can be smelted from galena in an ordinary wood fire. Galena typically is found in hydrothermal veins in association with sphalerite, marcasite, chalcopyrite, cerussite, anglesite, dolomite, calcite, quartz, barite, and fluorite. It is also found in association with sphalerite in low-temperature lead-zinc deposits within limestone beds. Minor amounts are found in contact metamorphic zones, in pegmatites, and disseminated in sedimentary rock.

Galena encourages compassion, love, tolerance, and peace and asks us to accept the aspects of ourselves we have long feared. Galena is strongly grounding and moves rapidly into alignment with Mother Gaia. It can be used to create cortices for Earth Healing ceremonies, or for shamanic journeys.
