  • Ultra Light
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    Zircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
  • Thin
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Thin Italic
    Minerals are classified by key chemical constituents; the two dominant systems are the Dana classification and the Strunz classification.
  • Light
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Light Italic
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Book
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
  • Book Italic
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Regular
    Currently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
  • Regular Italic
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Medium
    Scientists then studied the diamonds’ composition, looking specifically at their carbon isotopes.
  • Medium Italic
    Commercially valuable minerals and rocks are referred to as industrial minerals.
  • Bold
    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.
  • Bold Italic
    Crystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
  • Black
    The dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
  • Black Italic
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
