Note on the presence of Lead in Calcites from the Leadhills District

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 March 2018

Extract

The not unfrequent occurrence of the variety of Calcite, containing Carbonate of Lead and known as "Plumbo-calcite," at the Leadhills district, suggested that an examination of some of the ordinary Calcites from this locality, for Lead, might be of interest. The specimens for this examination were most kindly put at my disposal by Dr. Wilson. All of them were ordinary Calcites, none consisting of the recognised Plumbo-calcite.
