Ask {some number of} engineers: You have just been made a free gift of six thousand metric tons of zinc. What do you do with it?

  Spend like an hour researching the most efficient way to sell six thousand metric tons of zinc for its scrap value, then do so. I don't need a bunch of zinc for anything I want to do and money is a generally-useful thing to have.

    Zinc is very useful! I wouldn't want to imagine a world without zinc.

      Thank goodness we still live in a world of telephones, car batteries, handguns, and many things made of zinc.

  Sell it to someone who uses it to galvanize steel, I guess?

  Value the mineral and prove ownership, get financing, start a company and sell it by unit wholesale.
