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.
Hardness test: Determining the mineral's hardness using Mohs scale. Streak test: Observing the color of the mineral's powdered form. Acid test: Reacting the mineral with acid to observe effervescence. Magnetism test: Checking if the mineral is attracted to a magnet. Cleavage or fracture test: Assessing how the mineral breaks when subjected to stress.
Minerals are, by definition, found in nature. Thus anything artificially produced in a laboratory is not a mineral, even if it is exactly the same substance as that found in nature. For example, rubies are found in nature as well as being produced artificially, but the artificial ones are not minerals.

It is not a mineral
^^^^^
A crystal of pure calcium carbonate made in a lab is not a sample of the mineral calcite because calcite is a specific naturally occurring crystalline form of calcium carbonate with a distinct crystal structure and composition. Lab-made crystals may have different characteristics due to the manufacturing process and conditions, making them distinct from natural minerals like calcite.
The Lab Created Ruby was first made in the late 1800s by scientists trying to replicate the natural formation of rubies. They discovered a way to grow rubies in a laboratory setting using the same mineral composition as natural rubies, resulting in the creation of lab-created rubies.
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.
lab report on minerals
Meth is not grown, it is man made. The place it is made is commonly called a meth lab.
No sodium is not made in a lab
a lab for middle school students
Minerals are, by definition, naturally occurring. Since cubic zirconia is synthesized in a lab, it is not considered a mineral.
Bot Ruby ans Sapphire are made of the crystalline form Aluminum Oxide (with impurities that impart the characteristic colors). It is possible to mimic nature and grow these crystals artificially in a factory. These rubies are called "lab made rubies".
