Point gemmology: The zircon is a natural stone which can present all the colors of the spectrum. In the past, it has often been used to replace diamond because its brilliance is the closest to it. Zircon is found mainly in deposits in Sri Lanka and Myanmar. 

It is important to distinguish natural zircon from zirconium oxide – a man-made stone – which is also used to imitate diamonds and has no value.
