Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico proposes to prepare aqueous solutions of Na2S.9H2O (sodium sulfide nonahydrate) in an anoxic glove box, and combine the solution with aqueous solutions of iron/lead, to synthesize iron/lead sulfide minerals. The solubility of these minerals in brine would be measured.
