Hi guys,

#005 is probably molybdenite (4 to 5 times as dens as water)
Check out: http://www.mindat.org/min-2746.html and look at the 238 pics
;-)))

Native lead is not so common and galena is probably a tad too hard to write
with.
Graphite is very light (2.5 times water).

I didn't see the pics but this one was easier ;-)))

Cheers
Axel
