  • Black Italic
  • Ultra Light
    The green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    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
    Chemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
  • Thin Italic
    Mineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
  • Light
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
  • Light Italic
    The dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
  • Book
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Book Italic
    The dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
  • Regular
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Regular Italic
    Radioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
  • Medium
    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.
  • Medium Italic
    Australia leads the world in zircon mining, producing 37% of the world total and accounting for 40% of world EDR for the mineral.
  • Bold
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Bold Italic
    Zircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
  • Black
    On 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.
  • Black Italic
    The abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
