Diamond vs Moissanite, Lab vs Natural Diamond

WHAT IS

MOISSANITE?

Discovered by the French chemist Henri Moissan in the year 1893, Moissanite is silicon carbide and its various crystal polymorphs that occurs in nature.

Silicon carbide is useful for commercial and industrial applications because of its hardness, optical properties, and thermal conductivity. In its natural form, it is scarce. It has been discovered only in a few rocks, from upper mantle rock to meteorites. Discoveries show that it occurs naturally as inclusions in diamonds, xenoliths, and such ultramafic stones as kimberlite and lamproite. It has also been identified as presolar grains in carbonaceous chondrite meteorites. Due to its rarity, the Moissanite used for fine jewelry today is lab-grown, not mined.
