	Synthetic Diamonds
		The Gemesis Corporation of Sarasota Florida and New York uses machines developed from Russian technology, but improved and developed by Gemesis itself, producing diamonds under high pressures and temperatures from carbon, dissolved in molten metal, which is allowed to crystallise onto tiny "seed" diamonds.
		Gemesis market their diamonds, most of which are fancy yellow, as Gemesis Cultured Diamonds.
		We believe, as do Gemesis, that this is inconsistent, and that cultured should be allowed as a perfectly acceptable description.

	C&EN: COVER STORY - THE MANY FACETS OF MAN-MADE DIAMONDS
		In a warehouse in Sarasota, Fla., a company called Gemesis is growing diamonds in two dozen or so high-pressure, high-temperature crystal growth chambers, each the size of a washing machine.
		And because Gemesis' yellow lab-grown diamonds are visually indistinguishable from their mined counterparts, some in the gem industry have expressed concern that the lab-grown diamonds could be passed off as naturals.
		As a consequence, Gemesis and many others are eager to create large synthetic diamonds with carefully selected impurities--for instance, boron-doped semiconducting diamonds that could be used to fabricate diamond-based electronic devices that could stand up to heat and chemical attack.
