OK, OK as soon as I read "GALENA", the old flashback hit.
Absolutely right.
BTW, anybody ever make a "crystal" set out of an old
Gillette "blue blade"? They were very high carbon steel, 
and sometimes you could find sensitive areas on them.
(I suspect the sensitive places were carbide, as that
is a known "crystal set" detector, although unlike galena,
it required a high pressure on the cat's whisker.)
