Did You Know that a diamond is the hardest natural substance on earth, but if it is placed in an oven and the temperature is raised
to about 763 degrees Celsius (1405 degrees Fahrenheit), it will simply vanish, without even ash remaining. Only a little carbon dioxide will have been released.
Did You Know that a gemstone that has the same chemical composition and crystal structure as its natural counterpart
but is grown in a laboratory is called a synthetic gemstone.
