Detailed Solution

Cerussite, a mineral made of lead carbonate (PbCO3) and a significant lead ore, is also known as lead carbonate or white lead ore. Named after the Latin word for white lead, cerussa.
Lead(II) sulphide occurs naturally as the mineral galena, often known as lead glance (PbS). It is a significant source of silver and the most significant lead ore.
Anglesite, an organic form of lead sulphate (PbSO4). It mainly results from the oxidation of galena and frequently takes the shape of a concentrically banded mass encircling a core of unaltered galena. It is a common secondary mineral and a minor ore of lead.
