Moissanite:

Brilliance, which refers to the white light reflected back to the eye, is a good measure for how much a diamond will "sparkle". Moissanite disperses light very well and is actually more brilliant than a diamond. Natural moissanite is incredibly rare on earth, it is mostly only to be found in meteorites, having first been discovered in a meteorite crater in Arizona in 1893. Today, it’s created in controlled environments to mimic the forces of nature, resulting in durable, super-hard gemstones with a minimum ecological impact, and absolutely no mining.
