'''Galena''' is an {{L|ore}} of both {{L|lead}} and {{L|silver}}. It is the only source of {{L|lead}}. It is found as {{L|vein}}s within a wide range of locations:  {{L|granite}}, {{L|limestone}}, and all {{L|igneous extrusive layer}}s and {{L|metamorphic layer}}s.

When galena {{L|ore}} is {{L|smelt}}ed, it will always produce one {{L|lead}} {{L|bar}}. There is also a fifty percent chance of a {{L|silver}} {{L|bar}} being produced in addition to the {{L|lead}}.

Since galena is considered an {{L|ore}} of {{L|silver}}, it can be used in the creation of {{L|billon}} and {{L|electrum}} just as easily as {{L|native silver}}.  While it will not produce a {{L|lead}} {{L|bar}} during such a reaction, it can still be worthwhile to use it this way for {{L|electrum}} due to lead having such a low value.

Making {{L|Billon}} is the statistically best {{L|value}} reaction. On a site with no pure {{L|silver}} smelting this to get training {{L|weapons}} is also a valid choice.
