  • Ultra Light
    The name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    Zircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
  • Thin
    Chemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
  • Thin Italic
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
  • Light
    The English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
  • Light Italic
    In crystal growth, combinations of light intensity, light color, electric current, sound, the direction of these, plus the shape and size (frequency pattern) of the container or room, will all affect the final characteristics and energy potentials of a desired stone.
  • Book
    Mineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
  • Book Italic
    New York University chemists have created three-dimensional DNA structures, a breakthrough bridging the molecular world to the world where we live.
  • Regular
    In crystal growth, combinations of light intensity, light color, electric current, sound, the direction of these, plus the shape and size (frequency pattern) of the container or room, will all affect the final characteristics and energy potentials of a desired stone.
  • Regular Italic
    The name derives from the Persian zargun meaning gold-hued; this word is corrupted into “jargoon”, a term applied to light-colored zircons.
  • Medium
    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.
  • Medium Italic
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Bold
    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.
  • Bold Italic
    The name derives from the Persian zargun meaning gold-hued; this word is corrupted into “jargoon”, a term applied to light-colored zircons.
  • Black
    Zircon is mainly consumed as an opacifier, and has been known to be used in the decorative ceramics industry.
  • Black Italic
    Commercially valuable minerals and rocks are referred to as industrial minerals.
