Difference between Subduction and Zircon

Subduction vs. Zircon

Subduction is a geological process that takes place at convergent boundaries of tectonic plates where one plate moves under another and is forced or sinks due to gravity into the mantle. Zircon is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates.

Similarities between Subduction and Zircon

Subduction and Zircon have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Crust (geology), Granite, Magma, Pegmatite, Sedimentary rock.

Crust (geology)

In geology, the crust is the outermost solid shell of a rocky planet, dwarf planet, or natural satellite.

Granite

Granite is a common type of felsic intrusive igneous rock that is granular and phaneritic in texture.

Magma

Magma (from Ancient Greek μάγμα (mágma) meaning "thick unguent") is a mixture of molten or semi-molten rock, volatiles and solids that is found beneath the surface of the Earth, and is expected to exist on other terrestrial planets and some natural satellites.

Pegmatite

A pegmatite is a holocrystalline, intrusive igneous rock composed of interlocking phaneritic crystals usually larger than 2.5 cm in size (1 in); such rocks are referred to as pegmatitic.

Sedimentary rock

Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of that material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.
