2.Look at the hardness: the hardness of the jade rough is much higher than the general stone, you can use a sharp metal tool to scratch the surface of the rough, if you can't scratch or can only leave very shallow traces, then this rough stone is likely to be jade.
3.Sound identification: Tap the rough with another jade or jade, if it makes a crisp and pleasant sound, it means that the rough stone may be jade;If the sound is muffled, it is most likely not jade.
