Wikipedia article

Galena is an ore of both lead and silver. It is the only source of lead. It is found as veins within a wide range of locations: Template:L, Template:L, and all Template:Ls and Template:Ls.

When galena Template:L is Template:Led, it will always produce one Template:L Template:L. There is also a fifty percent chance of a Template:L Template:L being produced in addition to the Template:L.

Since galena is considered an Template:L of Template:L, it can be used in the creation of Template:L and Template:L just as easily as Template:L. While it will not produce a Template:L Template:L during such a reaction, it can still be worthwhile to use it this way for Template:L due to lead having such a low value.

Making Template:L is the statistically best Template:L reaction. On a site with no pure Template:L smelting this to get training Template:L is also a valid choice.

"Galena" is also the name of the sixth month of the Template:L Template:L, covering late Summer.

Smelting

Galena can be used to make several types of metal bars at a smelter:
