Zircon

Japanese: ジルコン
Zircon

Zr(SiO 4 ). Also called hyacinthite. Nesosilicate. Found as an accessory mineral in plutonic and metamorphic rocks. Tetragonal crystal system, space group I 4/ amd . Lattice constants a 0 = 0.660, c 0 = 0.598 nm. {110} incomplete cleavage. Hardness 7.5. Density 4.6-4.7 g cm -3 . Reddish brown to yellow. Becomes colorless and transparent when ignited in a reducing environment. Positive uniaxiality. ω 1.923-1.960, ε 1.968-2.015, ε-ω 0.042-0.065. When part of the Zr is replaced by U or Th, it is often metamictized. Natural zircon always contains a certain amount of Hf, and some zircons with Hf/Zr ratios of 0.6 have been found. It can be artificially obtained by hydrothermal synthesis of ZrO2 and SiO2 at temperatures ranging from 150 to 700°C.
