  • My Collection: GALENA!
    I think it’s perfect that my video about Galena falls on Canada Day! Even though my specimens aren’t Canadian we do have plenty of Galena in our beautiful country; even here in Ontario! I was inspired to make this video after seeing a few Galena cubes being misidentified as Pyrite. They certainly share a similar cubic shape, they are both metallic, but unlike Pyrite which is a brassy gold, Galena is a super reflective dark silver colour! I absolutely love it!
    This is NOT a selling video. This is for rock appreciation and learning. VOLUME UP for info on Galena. ⚒
    Neither my research nor I am perfect. If you have something to add please do so kindly in the comments. 💎

    I work in a lead mine and we find this stuff all over the place. It's pretty cool.

    Very interesting video. I'm going to check out your other videos. I collect minerals in my spare time from old mines. I have some beautiful galena, and even some argentiferous galena that is iridescent.

      Oh I'm glad you like it! I hope you enjoy my others. Goodness, iridescent Galena? That sounds amazing! I'd love to see it. E-mail me a picture if you can! Minerals@MalindaPrudhomme.com :)

    Isn't Galena toxic though? I bought one without knowing this. Can you please elaborate on this?

    • @MalindasMinerals

      It is certainly not harming you sitting in your collection. You’d have to pulverize it and inhale it for it to be dangerous. Like all mineral samples, wash your hands after handling. 😊

    Just subbed! Nice channel, with some great close up shots. I'm a miner (hard rock and placer) and I've found some great pieces of Galena from both the California and Nevada desert mountains over the years. One day I'll make a video crushing it and melting it into both lead and silver bars.....one day, lol!

      Oh wow! That is so nice of you to say. Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it. That video of yours sounds like it would be fascinating to watch! I'd definitely be interested! :)

      It is useful for Mineral Collecting! Are you wondering about value? I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. :)

    and what minerals are in galena rock?

    • @MalindasMinerals
      @MalindasMinerals  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Galena is a pure mineral, not a rock, not Granite. 😊
