Zircon Crystals & Zircon Mineral Specimens

Zircon crystals have a relatively high specific gravity, which means that they are heavier than many other minerals. Zircon is also very stable chemically, and as a result it remains relatively inert in sediments, where it is commonly found with other heavy minerals. Zircon crystals can have very brilliant adamantine luster.

When zircon gemstones are properly cut, they have truly amazing brilliance with even higher disperion than diamond! This is one reason why zircon gems are so popular when set into zircon earrings, because they sparkle like diamonds! Zircon jewelry is the traditional birthstone jewelry gift for December birthdays.
