Like what?
The object itself doesn't matter, just as long as it's made of zinc.
Where should I look?

Hmm...
Check out the areas of the base that would be used to store and study metals.
Tell me where to find zinc.
In the geology lab, of course! The only problem is that you can't take it from its pedestal for some reason.
There might also be a guard here - follow these hints for help dealing with him.
What can I do?
You may have forgotten it, but we still have the research notes from upstairs - they may prove useful here.
(Remember that you can look at different pages of the notes via the arrows.)

What's that?
Sodium chloride! Otherwise known as just... salt.
