  1. A mineral consisting of hydrated zinc silicate (2ZnO. SiO₂.H₂O). It is also known as hemimorphite. 2. Zinc carbonate (ZnCO₃), which occurs naturally as a mineral also known as smithsonite. The carbonate is used medicinally in suspension as a soothing lotion for sunburn and skin complaints.

It is usually colored pink by the addition of small quantities of iron(III) oxide.
