Zincochromite is a zinc chromium oxide mineral with the formula ZnCr2O4. It is the zinc analogue of chromite hence the name. It was first described in 1987 as an occurrence in a uranium deposit near Lake Onega Russia. It has also been reported from Dolo Hill New South Wales Australia and from the Tarkwa Mine in the Ashanti gold belt of Ghana.
