  • Bold Italic
  • Black Italic
  • Ultra Light
    An interesting habit occasionally exhibited in Zircon from a few localities is that their color darkens and their luster dulls upon prolonged exposure to sunlight.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    Minerals are distinguished by various chemical and physical properties. Differences in chemical composition and crystal structure distinguish the various species, which were determined by the mineral’s geological environment when formed.
  • Thin
    Recent 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.
  • Thin Italic
    Commercially valuable minerals and rocks are referred to as industrial minerals.
  • Light
    Australia leads the world in zircon mining, producing 37% of the world total and accounting for 40% of world EDR for the mineral.
  • Light Italic
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
  • Book
    An interesting habit occasionally exhibited in Zircon from a few localities is that their color darkens and their luster dulls upon prolonged exposure to sunlight.
  • Book Italic
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Regular
    The dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
  • Regular Italic
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Medium
    Zirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
  • Medium Italic
    Connected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
  • Bold
    Radioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
  • Bold Italic
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Black
    On the Isle of Skye near Ireland, is a chapel dedicated to St. Columbus, and on the altar is a round crystalline blue stone held sacred to weather and health.
  • Black Italic
    Currently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.

Typeface information

GT Zirkon is an extravagant sans serif workhorse. It blends the worlds of rational tool and ornamentation by applying techniques used to optimize type for small sizes in a refined way.
