Note that some content may still need to be updated.

Zinc is an uncommon, low-value metal primarily useful in the creation of alloys. It is smelted from sphalerite. Note that, unlike sphalerite itself, refined zinc is not magma-safe, or even fire-safe, and will melt in a grass fire.

Zinc is the second-lightest normal metal after Aluminium, and so a reasonable alternative to wood for making bins, barrels and pots.
