The Chinese have copied/cloned just about everything that has come along. Slabs would be an easy stroll through the park and very inexpensive if done in any decent quantity. If the grading companies are already buying their slabs from a Chinese molder then it's a no-brainer. It's not just the Chinese you need to worry about, if the slabs are molded in the US(which I would think they are, but don't know) it only takes a shady 3rd shift supervisor to send some out the back door. Opening exsisting slabs is small time, if they can get their paws on brand-new slab halves.
