Zirconium is formed in silicate alloys with a large proportion of incompatible elements with high field strengths. For example, hafnium is almost always present in an amount of 1 to 4%. The crystal structure of zirconium is a tetragonal crystal system.

It occurs as a common accessory mineral in igneous rocks, as a major crystallization product, in metamorphic rocks, and as detrital grains in sedimentary rocks. Large zircon crystals are rare.
