Answer

TOPAZ

This word refers to a precious gemstone that comes in various colors, with yellow and blue being the most popular. It is one of the hardest naturally occurring minerals and has been valued for thousands of years. The name likely derives from the Sanskrit word tapas meaning fire or heat, referring to its fiery golden hues.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains the letter Z, which appears in less than 3% of English words. If you suspect an uncommon letter like Z, X, or Q might be in play, try a guess specifically designed to test for these rare letters rather than sticking only to high frequency consonants.
