- Ultra LightOn the Isle of Skye near Ireland, is a chapel dedicated to St. Columbus, and on the altar is a round crystalline blue stone held sacred to weather and health.
- Ultra Light ItalicZircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
- ThinThe English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
- Thin ItalicAustralia leads the world in zircon mining, producing 37% of the world total and accounting for 40% of world EDR for the mineral.
- LightScientists then studied the diamonds’ composition, looking specifically at their carbon isotopes.
- Light ItalicCurrently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
- BookZircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
- Book ItalicThe name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
- RegularZircons from Jack Hills in the Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, have yielded U-Pb ages up to 4.404 billion years
- Regular ItalicSilicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
- MediumThe dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
- Medium ItalicConnected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
- BoldZircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
- Bold ItalicNew York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
- BlackZirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
- Black ItalicSilicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
