  • Black Italic
  • Ultra Light
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    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.
  • Thin
    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.
  • Thin Italic
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Light
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Light Italic
    In crystal growth, combinations of light intensity, light color, electric current, sound, the direction of these, plus the shape and size (frequency pattern) of the container or room, will all affect the final characteristics and energy potentials of a desired stone.
  • Book
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
  • Book Italic
    The English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
  • Regular
    Researchers found that same carbon 12 isotope in the diamond specks, indicating that they may have been formed from ancient microbes that were buried deep underground and subjected to enormous pressure.
  • Regular Italic
    Zirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
  • Medium
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Medium Italic
    Researchers found that same carbon 12 isotope in the diamond specks, indicating that they may have been formed from ancient microbes that were buried deep underground and subjected to enormous pressure.
  • Bold
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Bold Italic
    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.
  • Black
    Zircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
  • Black Italic
    Currently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
