PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — The world's largest diamond miner is launching a new brand of man-made stones.

These fake stones will be produced in a laboratory and sold by a company called Lightbox Jewelry.

The benefit of man-made stones is they cost about 90 percent less than natural stones.

And so there's no confusion, the fake stones will have a tiny mark indicating they are synthetic.
