- Ultra LightZircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
- Ultra Light ItalicZircon is ubiquitous in the crust of Earth and it occurs as a common accessory mineral in igneous rocks, in metamorphic rocks and as detrital grains in sedimentary rocks.
- ThinChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- Thin ItalicResearchers found that same carbon 12 isotope in the diamond specks, indicating that they may have been formed from ancient microbes that were buried deep underground and subjected to enormous pressure.
- LightThe dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
- Light ItalicAn interesting habit occasionally exhibited in Zircon from a few localities is that their color darkens and their luster dulls upon prolonged exposure to sunlight.
- BookZircons from Jack Hills in the Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, have yielded U-Pb ages up to 4.404 billion years
- Book ItalicZircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
- RegularRecent experiments, for example, have shown that crystals grow five times faster when their supersaturated solution is subjected to frequencies of 10 to 100 cycles a second.
- Regular ItalicZircons from Jack Hills in the Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, have yielded U-Pb ages up to 4.404 billion years
- MediumZircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
- Medium ItalicCurrently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
- BoldManly P. Hall and other students of esoteric wisdom have also noted that many ancient crystals were produced by ‘zodiacal formulae’ grown at specific times, when the sun, moon and planets were in special heavenly positions.
- Bold ItalicCommercially valuable minerals and rocks are referred to as industrial minerals.
- BlackCurrently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
- Black ItalicZircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
