As well, "y-Zn(OH), is present as a white radiating acicular mineral identified by the match ofits X-ray powder pattern with that of the syntheticphase.The last polymorph (ashoverite)occurs on colorlessfluorite as groups of square plates about 0.5 mm across.

It also occurs naturally as 3 rare minerals: wülfingite (orthorhombic), ashoverite and sweetite (both tetragonal). It is unusual in that, like zinc oxide, it is amphoteric. Thus it will dissolve readily in a dilute solution of a..
