Zircon comes in a wide variety of colors. "Its varied palette of yellow, green, red, reddish brown, and blue hues makes it a favorite among collectors as well as informed consumers." It is also "known for its brilliance and flashes of multicolored light, called fire" (gia.edu) in its colorless form.
"Zircon is actually the oldest known mineral on Earth; the oldest samples are even older than the moon, which formed 4 billion years ago" (gemselect.com).
