David,
Actually a simulate or a synthetic can look like a genuine.
The difference is that a synthetic has all the same physical,
chemical and optical properties as the genuine that it is trying to
look like.
A simulate can only look like the gemstone it is trying to look
like.
There is also the synthetic that is a simulate. Such as a synthetic
Spinel trying to look like a Sapphire or Ruby.
