Please examine the photos of this Ebay description listing page. Please review the gold engagement ring, and see how the letters of the fine print shows clear read-through effect, THIS IS NOT DIAMOND! Examine the white gold pendant in the above photos, notice how the read-through effect is faint, this is because of the size of the stone is much smaller, but again, THIS IS NOT DIAMOND! Stones that display read-through effect on fine print are NOT DIAMOND! It is best to test with Round brilliants and ovals and some fancy cut stones.
Refractive Index reading for Rutile R.I. 2.61-2.91 Displays NO READ-THROUGH
Refractive Index reading for Moissanite R.I. 2.65-2.69 Displays NO READ-THROUGH
Refractive Index reading for Diamond R.I. 2.42 Displays NO READ-THROUGH

Refractive Index reading for Spinel R.I. 1.72 CLEAR READ-THROUGH
Refractive Index reading for White Topaz R.I. 1.61-1.64 VERY CLEAR READ-THROUGH
Refractive Index reading for Faceted Glass R.I. 1.52 Extremely CLEAR READ-THROUGH
* You will see from the above Refractive Index listings that three simulants display high Refractive indices and DO NOT show read-through effect. These are all easily separated because of HIGH DISPERSION OR DOUBLE REFRACTION characteristics that they display! Strontium Titanate is the only simulant with similar Refractive Index readings as Diamond that is Singly Refractive.
* Testing tip for Cubic Zirconia, Faceted Glass, White Sapphire, White Topaz, Colorless Zircon. All of these above stones have lower refractive indices as Diamond. These stones will all show the read through-effect, some greater than others. Zircon and Cubic Zirconia may require the loupe to distinguish read-through effect. These all can be easily separated by using a small fine print and seeing if you could make out the letters. *Only works best on round brilliants, and some types of oval and fancy cuts. Please reference image provided in the above Ebay photos of this listing to understand the read-through effect. Other natural Stones not provided! Only for demonstration purposes only! All simulant and natural stones in this Ebay listing taken are examined using a millimeter gauge under 8x magnification (NOT PROVIDED ONLY FOR DEMONSTRATION PURPOSES. You will only receive (1) 6.5mm Round brilliant Cubic Zirconia specimen stone.
Please continue reading down below of how to perform various tests.
* This kit will include (1) 6.5mm round brilliant Cubic Zirconia AAA grade VVS D color 1 carat Diamond equivalent simulant specimen stone. You can use this to study facet rounding with your 10x loupe magnifier included in this kit. This specimen is good to use in distinguishing the poor thermal conductivity properties of Cubic Zirconia (FOG TEST). Use this specimen stone as a gauge for the RS MIZAR DiamondNITE Dual Diamond and Moissanite Tester by Oris Nelson Model provided in this kit! Test the loose stone in the aluminum testing tray provided in this kit. Testing the Specimen Cubic Zirconia stone with the DiamondNITE tester will show NO results.
Understand the density of certain gemstones to accurately calculate the estimated total carat weight of your jewelry! Use the PuriTEST Specific Gravity sheet provided in this kit to accurately calculate gemstone estimated weight! Your Cubic Zirconia specimen test stone will gauge as 6.5mm according to the Gemstone estimated Diamond gauge and will show as 1 carat. Remember this gauge only references the known density of (Diamond 3.52 Specific Gravity)! Cubic Zirconia is roughly 1.6-1.8 times as dense as Diamond. Cubic Zirconia has a density from 5.6-6.15 Specific Gravity, depending solely on the stabilizers that are used in the proprietary formulation of CZ! Example 6.5mm round Cubic Zirconia specimen stone should weigh approximately 1.7-1.8 carats.
Also you can understand the Visual Optic spectrum that Cubic Zirconia displays. Cubic Zirconia displays slightly different visual spectrums and has more dispersion and scintillation than Diamond! I will also include a random fortune cookie fortune along with this kit so you can better understand the Refractive Index of Cubic Zirconia. (Examine the photo above of a White Topaz displaying the numbers of the fortune cookies fortune). White Topaz has a Refractive Index reading of 1.6-1.64 approximately. Cubic Zirconia will show a slight read-through effect (Cubic Zirconia has a refractive index of 2.2-2.25).
Please review Ebay photos if performing the Visual Optic test. This test will not require the loupe. This will only require your eyes and a light source.
Visual Optics
This method costs nothing, and only uses your eyes and a light source. Light source could be a pen light, an old incandescent light bulb, or even the moon light shining in through your window.
How to test: If testing in set jewelry make sure to place stone as close to your eyeball without touching your eyeball! If you wear contacts, then you are ahead of the game! Place stone close to eye and peer through stone to light source.
Using Visual Optics on Diamonds you will see what appears as a night sky of small sharp stars scattered through out. I.D. of Diamond.
Using Visual Optics on Silicon Carbide "Moissanite" you will see what appears as a blizzard of wonderful colored snowflakes. I.D. of Silicon Carbide "Moissanite".
Viewing the above photos of this listing will show you the effects of read-through of Glass,Cubic Zirconia, White Topaz, and White Sapphire. Please view the photos above, this will show in the photos of this Ebay listing. Cubic Zirconia also is a poor thermal conductor, the Diamond Tester provided will show NO READING while testing Cubic Zirconia. If you breathe on your test Cubic Zirconia specimen it will fog for more than three seconds. If performing this test please make sure the stone is free from all oils, dirt and grime. Wipe with a soft microfiber cloth provided in this testing kit, or dry paper towel.
*Performing tests with the RS MIZAR DiamondNITE DN-1 Dual Diamond and Moissanite Tester by Oris Nelson
When turning unit on please allow 5-9 seconds for the unit to heat up before beginning any testing. The LED Wait/Battery light will remain on for 5-7 seconds, and then blink sporadically and beep for 1-2 seconds. Once RED LED extinguishes the Yellow Ready LED light emits and you are now ready to begin further testing on stones.
* Performing tests with the RS MIZAR DiamondNITE DN-1 Dual Diamond and Moissanite Tester by Oris Nelson
When turning unit on please allow 5-9 seconds for the Wait Lamp/Ready light to extinguish to begin further testing. Depending on testing temperature this may take up to 10-15 seconds if you are in temperatures colder than 60-65 degrees. Optimal testing temperatures are between 70-75 degrees.It is best to test in environments from 70-88 degrees.
*Helpful hints from what I have experienced on handling hundreds of these particular testers, the RS MIZAR DiamondNITE DN-1 Dual Diamond and Moissanite Tester by Oris Nelson
The probe tip of this RS MIZAR DiamondNITE DN-1 Dual Diamond and Moissanite Tester by Oris Nelson is 0.75mm-0.80mm, so you can test diamonds from 0.005 carat (1/2 point 1mm), to 0.01 carat (1 point 1.35mm), with some practice, and steady hands! I myself test diamonds under 1.35mm (0.01 carat) all the time with these testers with ease and accuracy! Please be extremely careful on testing smaller melee diamonds below 3 millimeters in diameter. This unit doesn't have a metal alert feature and if you hit the prongs by accident if may indicate that you have moissanite, because karat gold and silver has similar electrical properties as synthetic moissanite. I have found from experience with these testers that they can distinguish Charles and Colvard Forever One stones with the use of the Ultra-Violet Longwave 395nm torch light. The UV light excites the atoms in the moissanite crystal and the electrical conductivity can be detected by the DiamondNITE. It is of much importance to always use the UV torch light prior to testing. On rings you can place the ring on your mandrel , and shine UV light on stone, while your other hand is holding tester. This will provide the most accurate test method for set stones in jewelry.
Please see my above Ebay photos of separating Moissanite with a loupe. Moissanite shows double refraction! You must tilt stone in question, examining stone with 10X loupe magnifier provided. You must then look through the kite shaped facet into through the pavilion, focusing on the culet. It will display double pavilion facets, and will be quite blurry! Please reference above Ebay photos to better understand testing methods of moissanite.
Using the above various methods of testing provided in this in depth Ebay description will give you accurate non destructive means of identification. Visual Optic identification, along with read-through effect Refractive Index testing, and using the RS MIZAR DiamondNITE DN-1 Dual Diamond and Moissanite Tester by Oris Nelson will provide the best means of identifying questionable stones.
The best way to observe this effect is to view the gemstone at an angle from the crown (bezel) facet. By bringing a 10X loupe and focusing on the culet through the bezel facet, you can check the gemstone for a “doubling” facets effect.
The Cubic Zirconia 6.5mm Round brilliant specimen stone provided will give you a valuable indication of performing the visual optics test. Cubic Zirconia performs very similar spectrum patterns as diamond, the main reason of the popularity of Cubic Zirconia in the marketplace today! Moissanite on the other hand displays great amounts of dispersion and scintillation! Moissanite is compared to as a Disco Ball effect. In the Ebay image provided of this listing, you can better understand what I am talking about if you take a look. Comparing your test specimen Cubic Zirconia to moissanite you will see very clearly that the stone is definitely off! Moissanite is just too sparkly!
The information provided in this description page is very vital information to perform various tests, and have the most accurate results! It should be read and completely understood. Please continue reading down below for more important vital information.

* Tips for identifying Synthetic Lab Grown Cultured Diamonds
Check the fluorescence using a modified technique. If the stone is a Type II diamond, examine the stone with an ultraviolet lamp that provides long-wave and shortwave emission. Note the reaction under each wavelength. To use the ultraviolet lamp to determine whether the stone is a natural or synthetic diamond, do the following:
In 2009, the United States secret service seized over $182 million dollars in counterfeit currency. In 2008, the secret service seized $103 million. The Federal Reserve estimates that at any given time, between $60 million and $80 million are in global circulation.
Please reference the above images for using the Ultra-Violet light on currency! Look through all pictures of this listing please!!! This helps me help you understand what to look for.
All authentic US currencies have security threads embedded in the fabric of the bill. Under the view of an ultra-violet light, the security thread will glow a specific color according to the bill’s denomination. See the image above!
Examples:Security thread will glow pink/red in a 100, yellow in a 50, green in a 20, orange in a 10, blue in a 5.
This ULTRAVIOLET tool has so many things THAT IT CAN TEST FOR! This is the must have tool for ANYONE that handles cash on a daily basis! This tool will pay for itself if you only come across one counterfeit note in your lifetime!
