Zink Element
Zinc is a chemical element with the symbol Zn and atomic number 30. Zinc is a slightly brittle metal at room temperature and has a blue-silvery appearance when oxidation is removed. It is the first element in group 12 of the periodic table. In some respects, zinc is chemically similar to magnesium: both elements exhibit only one normal oxidation state (+2), and the Zn2+ and Mg2+ ions are of similar size. Zinc is the 24th most abundant element in Earth's crust and has five stable isotopes. The most common zinc ore is sphalerite (zinc blende), a zinc sulfide mineral. The largest workable lodes are in Australia, Asia, and the United States. Zinc is refined by froth flotation of the ore, roasting, and final extraction using electricity (electrowinning).
Brass, an alloy of copper and zinc in various proportions, was used as early as the third millennium BC in the Aegean, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Kalmykia, Turkmenistan and Georgia, and the second millennium BC in West India, Uzbekistan, Iran, Syria, Iraq, and Israel/Palestine.[3][4][5] Zinc metal was not produced on a large scale until the 12th century in India, though it was known to the ancient Romans and Greeks.[6] The mines of Rajasthan have given definite evidence of zinc production going back to the 6th century BC.[7] To date, the oldest evidence of pure zinc comes from Zawar, in Rajasthan, as early as the 9th century AD when a distillation process was employed to make pure zinc.Alchemists burned zinc in air to form what they called "philosopher's wool" or "white snow". 

History

Metallic zinc appeared much later in history than the other common metals. Copper, lead, tin, and iron can be obtained as the molten metals by heating their oxide ores with charcoal (carbon), a process called reduction, in shaft furnaces, which were developed quite early in history. Zinc oxide, however, cannot be reduced by carbon until temperatures are reached well above the relatively low boiling point of the metal (907 °C). Thus, the furnaces developed to smelt the other metals could not produce zinc. Small quantities of metallic zinc can sometimes be found in the flues of lead blast furnaces.
