About Zircon
Zircon is a sought-after mineral specimen prized for its sharp, well-formed tetragonal crystals and brilliant luster. It commonly occurs in granites and pegmatites, where crystals can range from tiny gemmy points to impressive, multi-inch specimens. Colors vary widely—rich reddish-browns, honey yellows, greens, and even rare blues—often enhanced by natural radiation over millions of years. Some zircon crystals are over 4 billion years old, making fine specimens not just beautiful display pieces, but some of the oldest natural materials a collector can own.
