- Ultra LightConnected to internal radiation damage, these processes partially disrupt the crystal structure and partly explain the highly variable properties of zircon.
- Ultra Light ItalicChemical substitution and coordination polyhedra explain this common feature of minerals.
- ThinZircon is a common accessory to trace mineral constituent of most granite and felsic igneous rocks.
- Thin ItalicThe English word “zircon” is derived from “Zirkon”, which is the German adaptation of this word.
- LightThe green coloring in many rounded pebbles usually indicates the Zircon is radioactive variety.
- Light ItalicDuring 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.
- BookYellow, orange and red zircon is also known as “hyacinth”, from the flower hyacinthus, whose name is of Ancient Greek origin.
- Book ItalicThe name zircon is taken from the name of the mineral zircon, the most important source of zirconium.
- RegularThe dark brown to black color observed in most Zircon crystals is caused from iron oxide impurities.
- Regular ItalicZircon is ubiquitous in the crust of Earth and it occurs as a common accessory mineral in igneous rocks, in metamorphic rocks and as detrital grains in sedimentary rocks.
- MediumZirconium is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.
- Medium ItalicThe abundance and diversity of minerals is controlled directly by their chemistry, in turn dependent on elemental abundances in the Earth.
- BoldMineral classification schemes and their definitions are evolving to match recent advances in mineral science.
- Bold ItalicMinerals 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.
- BlackRadioactive dating shows that the zircon crystals were formed more than 4 billion years ago.
- Black ItalicMinerals 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.
