What is Synthetic Opal?
The official gemological definition of a synthetic stone REQUIRES that it must have the same composition as the natural stone in order to be called synthetic. It must be the same chemically, optically and physically as their mined natural counterparts. The only difference is one is mined from the ground and synthetic is created in a lab.
