  • Ultra Light
    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.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    Some 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.
  • Thin
    The dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
  • Thin Italic
    The name derives from the Persian zargun meaning gold-hued; this word is corrupted into “jargoon”, a term applied to light-colored zircons.
  • Light
    The dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
  • Light Italic
    New York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
  • Book
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Book Italic
    Zircon 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.
  • Regular
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Regular Italic
    Australia leads the world in zircon mining, producing 37% of the world total and accounting for 40% of world EDR for the mineral.
  • Medium
    Crystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
  • Medium Italic
    Currently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
  • Bold
    Zirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
  • Bold Italic
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Black
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Black Italic
    Radioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
