What compounds are the sources of gallium in nature?

Gallium is not found free in nature, and it is present in only ppm (parts per million) quantities in minerals. For that reason, we recover gallium (III) salt as a byproduct of bauxite (a chief ore of aluminum) and sphalerite (a primary ore of zinc) processing. In either case, gallium chloride (GaCl3) is the salt we generally extract. Recovery of gallium from other sources is negligible.
