Lead ochre or lead ocher in American English (German: bleiocker; from grc ὤχρα ōkhrós 'pale yellow, orange'), as well as plumbic ocher or lead oxide[1]: 209  — at least three lead minerals (pigments)[2]: 307, 495  that resemble ocher in appearance. Under such a trivial name, minerals and pigments of cream, yellow, orange and red colours were known, reminiscent of or corresponding to the powdery consistency of ochre. The term ″lead ochre″ was used primarily among glassblowers, artisans, as well as geologists and miners. It may refer to:
