- Ultra LightMinerals 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.
- Ultra Light ItalicSome 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.
- ThinZircons from Jack Hills in the Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, have yielded U-Pb ages up to 4.404 billion years
- Thin ItalicMinerals are classified by key chemical constituents; the two dominant systems are the Dana classification and the Strunz classification.
- LightNew York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
- Light ItalicZircon 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.
- BookThe English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
- Book ItalicThe green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
- RegularNew York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
- Regular ItalicChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- MediumChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- Medium ItalicSilicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
- BoldRecent 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 ItalicChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- BlackNew York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
- Black ItalicAs short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
