There are several types of mercury. They include metallic mercury, and both inorganic and organic mercury compounds. Many of these forms are found in our environment, however, the most common natural forms include metallic mercury, mercury sulfide, mercuric chloride, and methylmercury (http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/toxprofiles/tp46.html).
Most mercury is chemically bound to other materials in the form of ores. The most common ore is red mercury sulfide (HgS), also known as cinnabar. Other mercury ores include corderoite (Hg 3 S 2 Cl 2), livingstonite (HgSb 4 S 8), montroydite (HgO), and calomel (HgCl).There are several others.he most common ore is red mercury sulfide (HgS), also known as cinnabar.
