The Science Behind The Breakthrough
Diamond Nexus Labs gemstones are created by a highly complex and patented process involving the growth of the engineered stabilized polycrystalline. The elements in Diamond Nexus Labs' gem material in order of atomic weights are: C (6), O (8), S (16), Fe (26), Co (27), Ni (28), Y (39), Zr (40), and Hf (72).
The geometrically exact crystals are created under tremendous heat and pressure in a time-compressed process that is very similar to how diamonds are naturally formed. The result is a perfect man-made crystalline substance that is extraordinarily close to a natural diamond in all relevant consumer aspects. Typically, scientific measuring equipment must be used to tell the difference, as DNL gems are virtually indistinguishable from minded diamonds to the naked eye. Diamond Nexus gemstones will cut glass, are flawlessly refractive, and have superlative fire and brilliance-exceeding the majority of mined diamonds in existence.

How Close Are Diamond Nexus Gemstones to Mined Diamonds?
Diamond Nexus gemstones are the most perfect diamond-simulants ever created. They closely match visually the characteristics of extremely expensive "flawless" mined diamonds as their clarity and color are perfect on their respective scales.
In almost all measurable properties important to consumers who are looking to save thousands of dollars, Diamond Nexus gemstones equal or exceed the characteristics that make mined diamonds the spectacular and desired objects that they are.
Unlike mined diamonds, Diamond Nexus gemstones are protected by our Triple 100% No-Excuses Guarantees. Diamond Nexus gemstones are guaranteed to never chip, fade, or discolor. Like diamonds, they are heirloom treasures and will maintain their beauty for generations.
For Serious Consideration, Diamond Nexus Gemstones Must Be Compared Using The Same Properties And Evaluations As Mined Natural Diamonds
The Legendary Four C's: How Diamond Nexus Compares
COLOR: The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) appoints color classifications of “D” through “Z.” Colorless diamonds, “Ds,” are extremely scarce in nature and they are representative of the peak of color grades—slight tints of yellow make diamonds less rare, grades “J,” “K,” “L,” & “M.” Diamond Nexus gemstones are always pristine clear transparent “Ds.”
CLARITY: This is the degree to which a diamond is free of inclusions that hamper luminosity. Virtually every mined diamond has some internal or external structural flaws. Diamond Nexus jewels simply do not, and meet the rigorous standards of first-class quality.
CUT: The art of diamond cutting has been refined to precise mathematical formulas. A good cut is determined by its light reflecting properties and its light dispersion. The cut actually refers to two separate aspects of a diamond's appearance: (1) shape, and (2) quality of workmanship. Diamond Nexus gemstones are precision cut perfectly to the optimum number of facets.
CARAT-WEIGHT: The size of a diamond is measured in carats; one aspect in the cost of a diamond is size. Price is also determined by the Color, Clarity, and Cut—the greater the quality, the higher the per-carat price. Small mined diamonds are more abundant than large ones, so bigger stones command a great per-carat price. A 3-carat diamond of similar quality could be priced 20 times that of a 1-carat diamond. Diamond Nexus flawless gemstones are all the same low price per carat. Size never influences the per-carat price.
