It is called synthetic as opposed to natural.
By definition a mineral must form by natural processes. Lab made diamonds are not natural.
No sodium is not made in a lab
Chemists made lots of materials in the lab.

It is not a mineral
^^^^^
Diamonds formed in laboratories are formed from carbon, which is an element. By definition, a mineral occurs naturally. So no, a lab-formed diamond is not a mineral.
Well as a chemist i would say it is. Most mineral samples are slightluy contamnated, whereas synthetic calcite is not.
lab report on minerals
Meth is not grown, it is man made. The place it is made is commonly called a meth lab.
Diamonds that are made in a laboratory are known as lab-grown diamonds . These diamonds are considered minerals since they are optically and chemically similar to mined diamonds, formed by the same mineral known as carbon. The only difference between mined and lab-grown diamonds is where carbon is crystallized- the earth's crust or the lab. CVD diamonds look exactly like mined diamonds and sparkle like natural diamonds, which is why they are known as minerals. There is no chemical or visual difference between lab-created and mined diamonds.

Geologists define minerals as occurring naturally. As cubic zirconia is synthesized in a lab, it is not considered a mineral
Minerals are, by definition, naturally occurring. Since cubic zirconia is synthesized in a lab, it is not considered a mineral.
