Frequently Asked Questions

What is lead oxide (litharge) used for?

Primarily for manufacturing fire assay flux and flux-grade metallurgical formulations used in mining and mineral processing.

Is litharge the same as red lead?

No. Litharge is lead(II) oxide (PbO), a yellow-to-red monoxide. Red lead is a different compound, lead(II,IV) oxide (Pb3O4) — the two are related but not interchangeable.

Does GGI Chemicals manufacture litharge or resell it?

We manufacture it directly at our own lead mine and processing facility in Hebei, China — we are not a reseller for this product.
