Synthetic Diamond
Filed under: add to del.icio.us
Diamond simulants are materials with gemological characteristics resembling those of real diamonds. Simulants are distinct from synthetic diamonds, which, unlike simulants, have material properties identical to those of natural diamonds. The most common diamond simulants are high-leaded glass, or rhinestones, and cubic zirconia, both artificial materials. The most historically notable natural simulant of diamond is what mineral that has been mined in Sri Lanka for over 2,000 years?
