2. Introduction
• Lab grown diamonds is the next big thing in the jewellery world that is gaining persistent
importance on all fronts. The key feature in a man-made diamond is its potential to be
available in all seasons as they are generated in labs which do not need a certain
environment for their growth. The labs also have the ability to produce Type II A diamonds
manually. Type II A diamonds are the diamonds that qualify as a high class of diamonds;
Cullinan, Kohinoor and Lesedi La Rona to name a few. Man-made diamonds are of
various types; although, they still haven’t been able to replicate all the natural diamonds.
There are two main types of man-made diamonds, let’s take a closer look at them and also
the sub-types:

3. Stimulant diamonds
• Stimulant diamonds come closest to representing the natural diamonds, the
difference is probably not visible to the naked eye. The stimulant diamonds
are chemically and physically different from the mined diamonds. These
diamonds are made from alternate materials and aren’t particularly created
from scratch. They were first made in the 1970s as a replacement for the
natural diamonds in the Victorian age. Cut glass, zircon and white
sapphires were used to make the lab grown diamonds.

4. Diamond Nexus Stimulants
• These diamonds are produced from carbon mixed with additional
ingredients. These stimulants have a triple lifetime guarantee due to their
extreme durability

5. Cubic Zirconia Stimulants
• These diamonds are produced from zirconium dioxide. They are the least
durable type of the stimulant diamonds, they also come at the lowest price.

6. Moissanite Lab created
gemstones
• These stones are synthesized from silicon carbide. Mossianite is a very
strong stimulant and this adds to its price, which is quite high as well.
Moissanite has a different look as it is a gemstone.

7. Cultured diamonds
• Cultured diamonds are created from scratch and built in an environment
that represents the environment in the diamond mines. These diamonds are
grown in a lab and have very similar physical and chemical characteristics
to that of natural diamonds. These diamonds are specially inscribed with a
number that denotes that they aren’t real, so that they cannot be used for
resale or insurance purposes. These diamonds are created in two ways,
stated below.

8. HPHT diamonds
• High pressure high temperature diamonds are made in an environment that
is similar to the environment favourable for the production of mined
diamonds. There are three main press designs that are used to supply the
pressure and the temperature required to produce synthetic diamonds. They
are: the cubic press, the split-sphere press and the belt press. Diamond
seeds are placed at the bottom of the press.

9. CVD diamonds
• Diamonds are grown from a hydrocarbon gas mixture in the chemical
vapour deposition method. This method is considered to be as the more
suitable choice for the industrial applications, flexibility and the simplicity
of the process. This is the reason why it is gaining popularity in the
laboratory research. HPHT still remains to be the preferred process for the
mass-production of diamonds crystals. The CVD diamond growth enables
the growth to happen over various substrates and large areas. It also
improves the control over the chemical impurities.

10. Conclusion
• To sum it up, there are two main distinctions of lab grown diamonds which
cover the umbrella of several other types of diamonds that are made in labs.
Even after being produced in a lab generated environment the diamonds
hold a very similar state of quality as the mined diamonds!;
