"Extraction of ore from the Allerborn lead mine was mainly concentrated on the territory of Belgium [The Longvilly lead mine, https://www.mindat.org/loc-5776.html]. Cubic crystals of galena up to 1.5cm on edge were found together with pyrite and sphalerite. The gangue rock is quartz-like. Secondary minerals include cerussite and pyromorphite." [Heinen, 1996]
