Zinkenite is a steel-gray metallic sulfosalt mineral composed of lead antimony sulfide Pb 9 Sb 22 S 42.Zinkenite occurs as acicular needle-like crystals. [2]It was first described in 1826 for an occurrence in the Harz Mountains, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany and named after its discoverer, German mineralogist and mining geologist, Johann Karl Ludwig Zinken (1790–1862).
Zincite is the mineral form of zinc oxide (Zn O).Its crystal form is rare in nature; a notable exception to this is at the Franklin and Sterling Hill Mines in New Jersey, an area also famed for its many fluorescent minerals.
Boulangerite or antimonbleiblende is an uncommon monoclinic orthorhombic sulfosalt mineral, lead antimony sulfide, formula Pb 5 Sb 4 S 11. [2] It was named in 1837 in honor of French mining engineer Charles Boulanger (1810–1849), [3] and had been a valid species since pre-IMA.
Andorite is a sulfosalt mineral with the chemical formula PbAgSb 3 S 6.. It was first described in 1892 for an occurrence in the Baia Sprie mine, Baia Sprie, in what is now Maramureș County, Romania, and named for Hungarian amateur mineralogist Andor von Semsey (1833–1923).
the polymeric anion [Zn(OH) 3 −] and its salts, for example NaZn(OH) 3 · H 2 O. [1] an oxide containing zinc and a less electronegative element e.g. Na 2 ZnO 2. [2] In the health supplement industry zincate may also mean a commercially available zinc supplement, typically formulated as zinc sulfate. [citation needed]
Zaratite is a bright emerald green nickel carbonate mineral with formula Ni 3 CO 3 (OH) 4 ·4H 2 O. Zaratite crystallizes in the isometric crystal system as massive to mammillary encrustations and vein fillings.
Zinkgruvan, a zinc mine in Askersund Municipality, Sweden. Zinc mining is the process by which mineral forms of the metal zinc are extracted from the earth through mining.A zinc mine is a mine that produces zinc minerals in ore as its primary product.
