- Ultra LightYellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
- Ultra Light ItalicConnected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
- ThinMineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
- Thin 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.
- LightCurrently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
- Light ItalicCursed gems are the exception to the rule, however, for in most respects, gems and crystals are generally looked upon favorably, having properties for good luck, for healing, and in aiding in psychic abilities.
- BookMinerals are classified by key chemical constituents; the two dominant systems are the Dana classification and the Strunz classification.
- Book ItalicThe green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
- RegularMineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
- Regular ItalicYellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
- MediumZircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
- Medium 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.
- BoldChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- Bold ItalicZirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
- BlackThe name derives from the Persian zargun meaning gold-hued; this word is corrupted into “jargoon”, a term applied to light-colored zircons.
- Black ItalicYellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
