That looks like some typical Galena. Is it fairly soft and light? If so, definitely Galena. Also, it's streak should look like pencil lead.

Its definitely lightweight, although the pieces are small, so its a little hard to tell. Maybe half cm, tops.

But, I could scratch it with a penny, and write on paper like it was a pencil, too.

If it quacks like a duck...
Thanks :)
