Moissan originally believed he had discovered gemstones, however, the particles turned out to be carbides. He then was subsequently given the crystal's name.
Moissanite first was discovered in its Green River Deposit of Wyoming around 1958, and in volcanic rocks in a mining operation at Yakutia the succeeding season.
