- Ultra LightThe dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
- Ultra Light ItalicMineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
- ThinConnected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
- Thin ItalicSome 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.
- LightDuring the growth process, crystals are also highly susceptible to consciousness imprinting, whereby the meditations, through-patterns, healing energy or bioelectric field identity of the grower may be enjoined within the crystalline structure and memory.
- Light ItalicCrystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
- BookZircons from Jack Hills in the Narryer Gneiss Terrane, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia, have yielded U-Pb ages up to 4.404 billion years
- Book ItalicYellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
- RegularAn interesting habit occasionally exhibited in Zircon from a few localities is that their color darkens and their luster dulls upon prolonged exposure to sunlight.
- Regular ItalicSilicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
- MediumThe abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
- Medium ItalicSome 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.
- BoldZircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
- Bold ItalicCrystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
- BlackDuring the growth process, crystals are also highly susceptible to consciousness imprinting, whereby the meditations, through-patterns, healing energy or bioelectric field identity of the grower may be enjoined within the crystalline structure and memory.
