  • Ultra Light
    The green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Thin
    The name derives from the Persian zargun meaning gold-hued; this word is corrupted into “jargoon”, a term applied to light-colored zircons.
  • Thin Italic
    Crystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
  • Light
    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.
  • 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.
  • Book
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
  • Book Italic
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Regular
    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.
  • Regular Italic
    The green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
  • Medium
    Connected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
  • Medium Italic
    Zirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
  • Bold
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
  • Bold Italic
    Mineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
  • Black
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Black Italic
    Recent 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.
