The uncut jade is the second lowest type of semi-precious gem in RuneScape. These are acquired via the Mining skill from gem rocks, which are found mostly at the Shilo Village Gem Mine, as well as a few other locations. They can also be found while doing Museum artefact cleaning, from panning at the digsite near the River Salve, and can be occasionally obtained by pickpocketingH.A.M. members via the Thieving skill.
An uncut jade can be cut with a chisel by a player with level 13 Crafting, granting the player a cut jade and 20 crafting experience. However, there is a chance, decreasing with higher Crafting, to accidentally smash it into a crushed gem, which gives only 5 crafting experience. At level 69 crafting, 411 jade were crushed out of 2000. At 89 crafting, 79 Jade were crushed out of 1000.
Cut jade may be sold to Gabooty's Tai Bwo Wannai Cooperative for 90 trading sticks, while uncut jade may be sold for 18. Due to this large discrepancy, it is advisable to cut jade before selling them for trading sticks, even with low Crafting.
Cut jade may be used with a chisel to create jade bolt tips, which are used to tip blurite bolts, creating jade bolts. This is not recommended, as better bolts are easily obtained and the Fletching experience awarded is negligible.
Jades may be crafted into jade jewellery, which can be enchanted to imbue the items with special abilities.
