Moissanite is a rare, naturally occurring mineral also known as silicon carbide. Moissanite was first discovered in 1893 at the site of a massive meteorite strike in Arizona. Scientists in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina later developed the thermal growing process that creates silicon carbide crystals, which are fashioned into moissanite gemstones.
While diamonds are created from the compression of coal and minerals over many hundreds of years in the earth, moissanite comes from the stars.
