-|**Iron**|One of the world’s most common metals -  found just about everywhere.  Frequently mined in single metal sites by humans.  (add carbon to make steel) weapons, armour - Other uses include cooking pots, hinges, hardware etc. tailings are also high in other useful metals such as copper, nickel, and cobalt.  |Gem Stone = Hematite|56300|

-|**Zinc**|Common co-products in zinc ores include minerals of lead and silver. Other mines may produce zinc minerals as a by-product of the production of ores containing more valuable minerals or metals, such as gold, silver or copper. t he element is normally found in association with other base metals such as copper and lead in ores Worldwide,  Main Ore = sphalerite (can be Gem quality -  red stone).  Use as a major additive for bronze.|70|

 |**Lead**|often found in association with Silver. (ore = Galena) used for Sling Bullets, water pipes, shielding from magic/scrying, coffins, malleability, water resistance, stained glass. (etc) The main lead-bearing mineral is galena (PbS), which is mostly found with zinc ores. Arsenic, tin, antimony, silver, gold, copper, bismuth are common impurities in lead minerals.  Other minerals in association are sphalerite, marcasite, chalcopyrite, cerussite, anglesite, dolomite, calcite, quartz, barite, and fluorite.|14|
 |**Tin**|Mix it with Copper to make traditional bronze, however it is a fairly rare metal - makes Zinc more important.  Gems associated with Tin mines include tourmaline, topaz, |2.3|
