  1. #Zircon shock twins in zircon with planar fractures in Chicxulub quartz-monzodiorite dike. Do not be complacent #TeamZircon. Call your grandma and your Great Uncle Bob.

  11. How, you might ask, does a perfectly formed #zircon get into a sapphire?

    Sapphire melting temp: around 2030 °C. (wikipedia)
    Zircon melting temp: high melting point (over 2500°C). (ga.gov.au/education/classroom-)
    Tiny zircons can withstand a lot of what makes and destroys other minerals.
