Hydrothermal zircon

Dear all,
Some years ago, the mineral zircon was encountered in a hydrothermal
environment.
Some people considered those zircons not to be "endemic" to that
environment.
Has zircon been confirmed as a mineral that forms from scratch in a
hydrothermal environment?
If so, can anyone share the earliest reference(s) on hydrothermally formed
zircon?

Looking FW to your replies!
Meanwhile, the very best for 2025 to all!
Cheers, Herwig

Hi Herwig,

Happy New Year!

Urs Schaltegger had a summary of it in Elements in 2007.
