Zircons are important gemstones of many colours, and are historical gemstones used for thousands of years.The name ‘Zircon’ derives
from the Persian ‘zargun’ meaning gold-hued.Yellow, orange and red zircons are also known as ‘hyacinth’, from the flower hyacinthus,
whose name is of Ancient Greek origin. Most zircon deposits come from Burma, though Australia boasts the oldest deposits dating back
over 4 billion years.
