Diamonds are a pure crystalline form of carbon. Scientists believe it takes billions of years for the carbon to turn into a diamond. Once formed, we mine the precious stone from the earth. Diamonique is a manufactured gemstone created in laboratories. They do not have the same organic properties. 

Sparkle is a term to describe light shimmering off a moving gemstone. Light shining on the moving diamonds or diamoniques pass to the middle. Once inside, the light reflects or bounces around. This is sparkle.

Mohs scale measures hardness on a scale of one to ten. One being the softest, for example talc. Diamonds are a 10. Diamoniques are 8.5.  To put it in perspective, hardened steel and tungsten receive a rating of 8 on the Mohs hardness scale.
