- Light ItalicSilicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.

- Book ItalicRadioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
- RegularConnected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
- Regular ItalicAs short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
- MediumZircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
- Medium ItalicNew York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
- BoldThe English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
- Bold ItalicRecent 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.
- BlackThe green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
- Black ItalicChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
