ZnS is the main form of zinc in nature, where it mainly occurs as the mineral sphalerite.

Both sphalerite and wurtzite are intrinsic, wide-bandgapsemiconductors.

While it is produced mainly from sphalerite, it is also found in silver, lead, and copper ores.

In vacuum, wurtzite becomes more stable than sphalerite when the particle size is less than 7 nm at 300 K.

Reich and Richter First identified it in sphalerite by its bright indigo-blue spectroscopic emission line.

- Zinc blende: an ore that is the chief source of zinc; consists largely of zinc sulfide in crystalline form
- A yellow, brown or black, sometimes red, green white or colorless mineral with cubic crystals, of a chemical formula (Zn,Fe)S.^[1]
- (Sphalerite (Zn, Fe) S)) A mineral which is the chief ore of zinc, it principally contains sulphide and variable iron
- A mineral composed of zinc, sulphur and some iron and the main source of zinc; colour ranges from yellow to black ("black jack") as iron content increases.
- A zinc sulphide mineral; the most common ore mineral of zinc.
- The major ore mineral of zinc; when pure (little or no iron) it forms clear crystals, usually red, but as iron content increases it forms dark, opaque lustrous crystals.
- Blende or black-jack. This is one of the most abundant minerals in the lead region, besided being of great economic value as an ore of zinc. It is almost invariably found as an associate vein-mineral in the horizontal deposits of lead ore. ...
