Short summary
Zircon in highly differentiated systems such as rare-metal granites often exhibits unusual texture and composition that need to be clarified. Based on a detailed study on zircon from the Beauvoir rare-metal granite (France), we show that zircon crystals were partially replaced during the magmatic–hydrothermal transition of these systems, resulting in a significant change in their crystal texture and chemistry.
