Historically, Zinc carbonate (CAS NO.10476-83-2) was identified with hemimorphite before it was realised that they were two distinct minerals. The distinct mineral smithsonite was first described in 1832 and named for English chemist and mineralogist, James Smithson (1754-1829), whose estate financed the Smithsonian Institution.
