The green stone appears to possibly be Nephrite Jade and even the bluish stone could also possibly be a different colored Nephrite Jade as well.

gemmy59... Sometimes the state and or region narrows down the potential candidates of types of stones and/or gems.

The green stone probably nephrite, and a great stone for further work if you've lapidary equipment. If you've from northern CA, could easily be nephrite. Boulders of the stuff off-shore.

im from Philippines.. i also have jadeite but that nephrite is so different from common jade.. i have more stones that i think its really rare and valued, especially corundiums. Sir/ Maam, is it really safe to send rough stone to GIA for certificate? or I just let buyers to see it personally for ID it? I need registered GEmologist from Asia or in Philippines.

From a faceters point of view...

You need to know what your selling. You won't last long on the market if you don't, its considered unprofessional.

Gemologyonline is an excellent tip.
