Is a Simulated diamond a real diamond?

Answer 1

Simulated diamonds are also known as diamond simulants and include things like cubic zirconia (CZ), moissanite, and YAG. They can also include some natural clear gemstones like white sapphire, white zircon or even clear quartz. Simulated diamonds do not possess the chemical and physical properties of actual diamonds, so they generally sell for a relatively low cost.

Answer 2

A simulated diamond is merely a substance that may look like a diamond, but does not possess all the same properties as a diamond. These are commonly known as cubic zirconia or moissanite, though other substances can also be considered simulants. These can be found usually for a couple dollars to a couple hundred dollars for a one carat equivalent. Synthetic diamonds on the other hand are real diamonds. They are made of carbon in a process diamonds naturally grow under. They are most commonly available in yellow and blue colors, with white being quite rare, and are at least a few thousand dollars per carat.

No, a simulated diamond is not a real diamond. Simulated diamonds are man-made stones that mimic the look of real diamonds but are not composed of the same material or have the same properties.
