Keyite:

Corrupt Form:While the stone is named after Charles Locke Key, you could have a play on the words and make your gem’s corrupt form have a head, horns, tails, or limbs shaped like large keys while there are holes/crevices in the body shaped like key holes; the corrupt form is quite small in size“The name comes from Charles Locke Key (born 1935), an American mineral dealer who furnished its first specimens.”https://www.assignmentpoint.com/science/geographic-minerals/keyite-properties-and-occurrences.html

“Named after the mineral dealer Charley Key, who discovered some tiny blue crystals of this mineral on a sample of green Adamite”https://crystalsymmetry.wordpress.com/tag/keyite/

Blue Zircon:

Corrupt Form:The corrupt form looks reminiscent to a Diamond’s height and size and may even possess qualities similar to the Diamonds; the form lets off non-harmful amounts of radiation- the longer the gem is in their corrupt form, the more their physical form suffers damage and decay; sunlight/ultraviolet light can cause discoloration in the gem’s form; the gem’s form may even have chips and cracks from injuries“It is sometimes looked upon as a cheap Diamond simulant, but in actuality it can be a valuable gem… The radioactivity in Zircon gemstones is very minimal and is generally believed to be safe, without posing any health hazards… An interesting and strange habit exhibited in only few Zircons is that their color darkens and their luster dulls upon prolonged exposure to sunlight… Zircon is also prone to cracking and chipping if banged too hard.” https://www.minerals.net/gemstone/zircon_gemstone.aspx
