As much as I want apollo diamond to be exact the same as real diamond, it is not going to work. I read the article which "A combination of spectroscopic methods--including infrared spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy--can normally be used to distinguish Apollo gems from naturally occurring ones, according to Wuyi Wang, a research scientist at the Gemological Institute of America in New York City [Gems & Gemol., 39, 268 (2004)]."
So, it looks like they found a way to detect Apollo diamonds and the question is that how many jewelers would have the technology to detect it, and how do consumers detect it.
