Australian ZIRCON (faceted)
zircon for sale
A remote area called the Mud Tank Zircon Field located on Alcoota Station, Northern Territory, in outback Australia has been known for its zircon material since 1940. The magnificent gem zircons discovered here are orange to amber to pale brown, some are even pink, purplish, colourless, yellow and part-coloured.

For sale is an incredible suite of 15 precision faceted zircons ranging in size from 0.8 ct to 7.1 ct and include all colors described below. A special 1.75 ct plum/purple stone with incredible saturation and considered the most sought after and rarest color from this locality is also part of the suite. Most of the stones contain light inclusions which are barely visible to the naked eye due to the overwhelming scintillation. This collection of professionally-faceted zircons is being offered for a very good price.

The sizes are as follows:
Row 1 (left, from top to bottom, in carats) - 0.8, 1, 1.15, 1.75 (plum/purple), 1.65 (yellow), 2.4 (light pink)
Row 2 (middle, from top to bottom, in carats) - 2.1, 2.6, 1.35, 1.95 (colorless), 1.8 (hexagon)
Row 3 (right, from top to bottom, in carats) - 5.2 (large square), 7.1 (large round), 4.05 (bellaxe design), 3.8
Total = 37.7 carats

Zircon is known to vary widely in intensity of its reaction to UV radiation. This is also the case for the Harts Range material. The final photo shows 6 stones exhibiting yellow under short wave UV light.

These stones were collected in the 1970's and faceted by Jaimy Henman of Gems Down Under in 2023. To see more of Jaimy's incredible faceted stones, please follow him on Instagram!
