chemical location inquiry

Hey Folks,
I'm searching for the following chemicals. Barium Chloride, Barium chromate,
and Zinc Borate. If any one has information on where I can obtain/purchase
these chemicals I would be very grateful. I've experimented with them when i
was a student and now am eager to renew my experiments.
Unfortunately, the school I attended had those chemicals for so long they do
not know where they obtained them.
Thanks again for your help.

Dear Mike; If you do find some Barium chromate, there are some nice limey
greens @ about 5% to be obtained in highish barium glazes. Good luck! Hank
