Serious contenders to real gems: cultured stones

Though, it is easy to delude a layman and to make him think that cubic zirconia is a real stone, but CZ will for sure fail the destructively test – only hit the stone with smth. very hard, hard as real diamond gemstone.Other kinds of simulants won’t make either thermal test or destructive one, even in either of them. It seems not a thing left to make the diamond low-budget for population. Still, in 1954 a great rival to mined diamond gemstone was made – man-made diamond.In any case, Cubic Zirconia is an artificial material and in order to produce crystals and to let them stay durable at ordinary temperatures stabilizer is always needed. Typically ytrrium or calcium might play the role of stabilizers, but the amount of these elements is determined by producers individually. The thing is stabilizers are included in the structure of the manufactured product. It actually makes the loose stone to weight more than natural stone. Moreover the CZ dispersion is much higher than of diamond.
