  • Black Italic
  • Ultra Light
    Zircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    Cursed 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.
  • Thin
    The dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
  • Thin Italic
    In crystal growth, combinations of light intensity, light color, electric current, sound, the direction of these, plus the shape and size (frequency pattern) of the container or room, will all affect the final characteristics and energy potentials of a desired stone.
  • Light
    Chemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
  • Light Italic
    Some rocks, such as limestone or quartzite, are composed primarily of one mineral—calcite or aragonite in the case of limestone, and quartz in the latter case.
  • Book
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
  • Book Italic
    Crystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
  • Regular
    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.
  • Regular Italic
    Cursed 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.
  • Medium
    Zircons from Jack Hills in the Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, have yielded U-Pb ages up to 4.404 billion years
  • Medium Italic
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Bold
    Connected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
  • Bold Italic
    Currently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
  • Black
    Minerals can be described by their various physical properties, which are related to their chemical structure and composition.
  • Black Italic
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.

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.
