Anglesite Gemstone - Gemstones TV

Anglesite, chemically known as lead sulfate (PbSO4), derives its name from its characteristic crystalline structure, which often forms in angular shapes. This mineral typically forms in the oxidized zones of lead ore deposits, where it crystallizes in a variety of environments, including hydrothermal veins, limestone cavities, and oxidized zones of lead-bearing ore bodies. Its formation is intricately linked with the geological processes that shape our planet over millions of years.
