The structure described by ZnS is Moissanite-6H-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. There are four inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded to one S(4) and three equivalent S(3) atoms to form corner-sharing ZnS4 tetrahedra. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded to one S(3) and three equivalent S(1) atoms to form corner-sharing ZnS4 tetrahedra. In the third Zn site, Zn(3) is bonded to one S(1) and three equivalent S(2) atoms to form corner-sharing ZnS4 tetrahedra. In the fourth Zn site, Zn(4) is bonded to one S(2) and three equivalent S(4) atoms to form corner-sharing ZnS4 tetrahedra. There are four inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded to one Zn(3) and three equivalent Zn(2) atoms to form corner-sharing SZn4 tetrahedra.

In the third S site, S(3) is bonded to one Zn(2) and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form corner-sharing SZn4 tetrahedra. In the fourth S site, S(4) is bonded to one Zn(1) and three equivalent Zn(4) atoms to form corner-sharing SZn4 tetrahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
