Zircons are minerals belonging to the nesosilicate group with the chemical formula ZrSiO₄. They occur in a wide range of colors, including colorless, yellow, brown, green, red, and blue, depending on the impurities present. With a hardness of 7.5 on the Mohs scale, they are quite durable and often used in jewelry as gemstones. Zircons are known for their brilliance and light dispersion, similar to that of diamonds. They are also used in geochronology for dating rocks and sediments due to the presence of uranium and thorium in their crystalline structure.
