  • Ultra Light
    As short and stubby crystals, as well as prismatic which are sometimes elongated.
  • Ultra Light Italic
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Thin
    Silicon and oxygen constitute approximately 75% of the Earth’s crust, which translates directly into the predominance of silicate minerals.
  • Thin Italic
    Minerals can be described by their various physical properties, which are related to their chemical structure and composition.
  • Light
    Currently, zircons are typically dated by uranium-lead (U-Pb), fission-track, cathodoluminescence, and U+Th/He techniques.
  • Light Italic
    Radioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
  • Book
    Minerals can be described by their various physical properties, which are related to their chemical structure and composition.
  • Book 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.
  • Regular
    Zircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
  • Regular Italic
    Zircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
  • Medium
    Connected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
  • Medium Italic
    The green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
  • Bold
    The English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
  • Bold Italic
    Yellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
  • Black
    Zircon is an important gemstone, with several color forms used in various forms of jewelry.
  • Black Italic
    Radioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
