The solid waste attributes of two samples declared as "lead concentrate powder" and "lead-zinc ore" were identified and analyzed. Based on characteristics such as element content, phase composition, microscopic morphology, and particle size distribution, it was concluded that the two samples were lead-containing fume and lead pyrometallurgical slag, respectively. The main elements in the "lead concentrate powder" sample were lead, sulfur, zinc, tin, chlorine and copper, and the main phases were lead sulfate, basic lead chloride and zinc stannate. The particle size was very fine, and the microscopic morphology consisted of extremely fine spherical particle aggregates. These features are inconsistent with the characteristics of common lead ores, indicating it is lead-containing fume produced during pollution control processes. The main elements in the "lead-zinc ore" sample were silicon, zinc, iron, calcium, aluminum and lead, and its main phases were hardystonite, willemite, calcium zinc silicate and gatena. Its microscopic morphology showed a honeycomb-like microporous structure, consistent with lead pyrometallurgical slag. According to GB 34330-2017, both samples were identified as solid wastes.
