Zircon History

Zircon is the oldest mineral on earth and is found in the crust of the earth. It occurs as a common accessory mineral in igneous rocks, in metamorphic rocks and as grains in sedimentary rocks. It is a common constituent of most sands and has been used for thousands of years.

Considered one of the densest gemstones on the planet, zircon is also 50% denser than diamond. In short, if you compare the same size of a diamond with zircon, the latter will prove heavier. Alternatively, if you take a 1 carat diamond and a zircon that looks akin to the diamond in size, Zircon will be 1.5 carats! 

• Zircon has been found in some of the most ancient archaeological sites.
• Zircon is first mentioned in the ancient Indian tale of the Kalpa tree. Described by Hindu poets as the ultimate gift to the gods the bright glowing tree was bejeweled with leaves of zircon.

• Zircon is also one of the twelve gemstones set in the foundations of the city walls of Jerusalem (Revelations 21:19) and associated with the Apostle Simon.
