## Features

- GALENA | Galena grows in beautiful metallic cubes. Often refined as lead ore, galena can also be used to teach students about a mineral's luster, streak, and cleavage. Because of the lead in the chemical formula, it is much denser than other minerals, which makes it seem unnaturally heavy for its size

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great specimens, terrible packaging
*by C***. on September 13, 2020*

I ordered the six pack and got very nice specimens exactly as described. My complaint is about the packaging. All six were placed in a plastic bag together then packed in a small cardboard box with newspaper padding all on one side of the box. While small chips and nicks aren’t a serious problem for these particular stones the end result of this poor packaging is stones plus a lot of leaded dust. Messy plus not a great thing to breathe in. Use caution when opening.
