  • Ultra Light
    Zirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Thin
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
  • Thin Italic
    Crystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
  • Light
    The English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
  • Light Italic
    Zirconium is a chemical element with symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
  • Book
    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.
  • Book Italic
    Commercially valuable minerals and rocks are referred to as industrial minerals.
  • Regular
    Crystals are almost always terminated with a pyramidal termination, and may be doubly terminated, and occasionally entirely pyramidal resembling an octahedron.
  • Regular Italic
    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.
  • Medium
    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.
  • Medium Italic
    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.
  • Bold
    Zircon often contains traces of radioactive elements in its structure, which causes it to be metamict.
  • Bold Italic
    The English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
  • Black
    Minerals are classified by key chemical constituents; the two dominant systems are the Dana classification and the Strunz classification.
  • Black Italic
    Minerals can be described by their various physical properties, which are related to their chemical structure and composition.
