Germanium-bearing zinc concentrate

A zinc concentrate that carries germanium, which the U.S. Geological Survey reports as the form in which germanium reaches smelters. The germanium rides in a product made for its zinc: nothing about this concentrate is arranged for germanium's benefit, and a zinc concentrate is not germanium-bearing merely by being a zinc concentrate.
