NO, Jade has absolutely NO cleavage. It is also among the Toughest of precious gems. Jade can break diamonds but diamonds cannot break jade. However, diamonds Can Scratch Jade because diamonds are "Harder" NOT "Tougher" than Jade. The reason for this is that Jade is formed in an interlocking/woven pattern that has a very High toughness and durability beyond that of most known substances. Bullets bounce of sheets of Jade. This is a documented fact. Not to mention that Jade can be one of the Most Beautiful Gemstones in ALL the World! I hope this was helpful and informative.
