Zinc oxides produce a white powder color. Here is an example; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_oxide
Chromium oxides produce a light green tint, but it can depend on the finish used; it can turn yellow or brown depending on the temperature. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(III)_oxide
Reddish orange to deep red for iron, of course. Here are some examples: http://chromeoxide.com.cn/product7.html
Copper does not always react with blue-green or white verdigris from acetate or acid byproducts in flux or minerals in water; the byproduct can be other colors if purely from oxygen exposure, but it is usually brown if it is "regular" copper simply exposed to oxygen over time. Think of a 1931 penny. That changes drastically if the copper has some small amounts of beryllium or brass, even trace amounts can produce a completely different color oxide.

For any of the above base metals, the color of the oxidation depends on what else is in there.

Fellow TechNetters:
When copper is attack and forms oxidation/corrosion it give off a bluish/greenish tint. What colors would be expected if the base alloy was Fe/Zn coated with a Chromeate coating?
Victor,
