Unique Identification: Zircon
Site name: Bay Horse Lake, ID
Light type: Plane-Polarized Light
Magnification: 400.0
Submitted by: Mark Shapley
Notes: Large prismatic zircon from a basaltic tephra originating in the Snake River Plain, Idaho. The extreme relief of the mineral accentuates the intersection of prism faces as shadowed lines. Note prismatic inclusion oriented to the long axis of the zircon.
