zirconiten.

Brit.

/ˈzəːkənʌɪt/, U.S.

/ˈzərkəˌnaɪt/

Forms: 1800s zirconit, 1800s– zirconite.

Origin: A borrowing from German. Etymon: German Zirkonit.

Etymology: < German Zirkonit (1801 or earlier) < Zirkon zircon n. + -it -ite suffix¹. Compare French zirconite (1808 or earlier in the source translated in quot. 1811 at main sense).

Mineralogy.

The mineral zircon; esp. a greyish or brownish variety of this.
