Which oils are 100% synthetic?

I read some where on the net that Castrol Syntect and Syntec blend are using a new formula that uses a blend of mineral based oils, and there are other brands doing the same thing yet they are still classified as full synthetic.I also read that Mobil1 is still 100% synthetic which other oils beside Redline,Amsoil,Royal Purple are 100% synthetic.

I think that only RoyalP's RACING oils are full synthetics, their regular oils are not. I don't know anything about the other brands you listed.
