Zinc oxide is prepared commercially by two methods: the American (or direct) process, which uses zinc ore and concentrate, and the French (or indirect) process, which uses zinc metal. Some 54% of US zinc oxide production is from zinc ore and concentrate (American process), 33% from slab zinc (French process) and 13% from secondary material.

It stays as a metal and falls to the bottom of the cell as an "anode sludge" together with any unreactive material left over from the ore. The anode sludge will contain valuable metals such as silver and gold. Metals above copper in the electrochemical series (like zinc) will form ions at the anode and go into solution.

The process is carried out in a series of tanks. As the lead and zinc minerals are less readily wetted than the gangue, they adhere to the air bubbles which are carried to the surface. The rock particles sink and the lead and zinc ores are skimmed off. Then the lead ore is separated from the zinc ore.

Zinc smelting is the process of converting zinc ores into pure zinc. Zinc smelting has historically been more difficult than the smelting of other metals, e.g. iron, because in contrast, zinc has a low boiling point. There are two methods of smelting zinc: the pyrometallurgical process and the electrolysis process; both methods are still used.

Commodity Zinc is a brittle, whitish metal used in a wide range of industries, most familiarly as a galvanizing material for steel. Known and used for millennia, it was named "zinc" in the early 1500s by Paracelsus, a Swiss physician and philosopher. The name was derived from "zinke," a German word for "fork tooth," referring to the form zinc often took when smelted.
