- Ultra LightThe dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
- Ultra Light ItalicNew York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
- ThinChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- Thin ItalicYellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
- LightZircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
- Light ItalicConnected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
- BookThe abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
- Book 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.
- RegularThe name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
- Regular ItalicConnected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
- MediumZircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
- Medium ItalicChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- BoldThe name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
- Bold ItalicZirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
- BlackAn interesting habit occasionally exhibited in Zircon from a few localities is that their color darkens and their luster dulls upon prolonged exposure to sunlight.
- Black ItalicZirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
