Hi Compendium ! Thanks for confirming my suspicions. That seems like a pretty comprehensive article you linked to, another one I read said that sometimes it can be a real specimen called moissanite, but I will take your opinion as a confirmation and forget about such product.
Shucks
, it looked pretty cool, but if it's man made it might as well be a chunk of plastic IMO.
I guess I'll go back to looking for something else. I was thinking maybe something Botryodial like Hemimorphite or Aragonite. I'll also found something really cool called grape agate. Some of them are quite dull looking but certain ones are very gemmy and colourful, green and purple and sometimes yellow little globe clusters of crystal that look very much like, well... grapes
