- Bold ItalicZircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
- BlackCrystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
- Black ItalicMinerals can be described by their various physical properties, which are related to their chemical structure and composition.
