It has the same chemical formula and is a rare mineral, discovered by the French chemist Henri Moissan in 1893.  Moissanite is regarded as a diamond alternative, with some optical properties exceeding those of diamond. It is marketed as a lower-price alternative to diamonds that also claims less exploitative mining practices typically associated with diamonds. DIAMONDS VS MOISSANITE, BRILLIANCE: Moissanite is actually more brilliant than a diamond! Brilliance, which refers to a stone’s ability to reflect white light, is a good measure of how much a gemstone will ‘sparkle’. (Diamond’s brilliance is 2.42, whereas Moissanite’s is 2.65).
