ZnS exists in two main crystalline forms. This Dualisms is an example of polymorphism. In each form, the coordination geometry of Zn and S is tetrahedral. The more stable cube form is also known as Sphalerite or Sphalerite.
Hexagonal is called mineral Wurtzite, although it can also be synthesized and produced. The transformation from Sphalerite to Wurtzite occurred at about 1020 ° C. The Tetragonal crystal system is also known as a very rare mineral, called manganite, and its Molecular formula is (Zn,Hg)S.
