Lead ore is a somewhat uncommon ore that yields lead and small amounts of silver.
Lead ore is less common than iron ore, but more common than gold ore. It occurs at relatively low levels in the world (layers 15-35). Lead ore veins are slightly smaller than iron ore veins, and may contain one or two blocks of silver ore as well. Similarly, silver ore veins may contain one or two blocks of lead ore.
Lead ore must be mined with an iron pickaxe or better. If it is mined, it drops itself as an item.

When lead ore is broken using a Smashing enchanted pickaxe or similar tool, two piles of pulverized lead are dropped instead of the ore.
