  • Ultra Light
    Connected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    The English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
  • Thin
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
  • Thin Italic
    Zircons from Jack Hills in the Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, have yielded U-Pb ages up to 4.404 billion years
  • Light
    Zircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
  • Light Italic
    Zircon 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.
  • Book
    Scientists then studied the diamonds’ composition, looking specifically at their carbon isotopes.
  • Book Italic
    Zircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
  • Regular
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
  • Regular Italic
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
  • Medium
    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.
  • Medium Italic
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
  • Bold
    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.
  • Bold 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.
  • Black
    Mineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
  • Black Italic
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
