White Zircon has been traditionally used as an alternative for the far more costly diamond for hundreds of years. It’s almost similar it’s an only a little bit less hard (Mohs hardness of about 7.5), and it has the same luster and refractive index. It also has the brilliant dazzling, that the diamond is so famous for. Although, White Zircon is a stone of planet Uranus and works on Crown chakra in contrast to diamond which is a stone of Planet Venus and work on the heart chakra.
However, in recent gemology, White Zircon has been improving importance in its own right. This gemstone is found in various other colors as well brown, yellow and orange being the most notable shades. Zircon is basically known as Zirconium silicate. This is normally found as a minor constituent in igneous rock, and in all types of rocks. It’s typical tetragonal structure leads to the white brilliance that is combined with the stone.
