Galena is an ore of both lead and silver. It is found as veins within a wide range of locations: granite, limestone, and all igneous extrusive layers and metamorphic layers.

When galena ore is smelted, it will always produce one lead bar. There is also a fifty percent chance of a silver bar being produced in addition to the lead.
