Your answer depends on what property interests you: clarity or carat weight, or whether or not your 'big natural...stone' is a diamond.
A local jeweler can help you understand the stone that you take in to be tested.

Why would it be easy to overlook a diamond in its natural state?
One answer could be the inexperience of the diamond viewer. Another is that many diamonds are no bigger than a grain of rice, also their color can be missed against the natural color of the ground. The field test for diamond is 'extreme hardness'. As well only about 25% of natural diamonds are of gem-stone quality, so the other 75% of diamonds found will not appear to possess a natural clarity or colour commonly associated with gem-stone quality rocks.

The report will immediately know if the gem is fake or not.The value of a diamond depends on its cut, its clarity, its colour and its carat weight. A local jeweler can give you the answer you want.
How do you know if a diamond is real?
I've been told true diamonds will cut glass & if you have it examined by a Jeweler DO NOT leave it overnight as you may receive a fake back. GOOD LUCK. Heavy Liquid Method: Keeping the diamond in "clerici diluted solution" (poisonous) of S.G. 3.52 will suspend (neither floats nor sinks) whereas other stones will either float or sink. The actual cleric solution has S.G. of 4.00 but with added "methylene iodide" and with help of indicator stone (diamond) will make the solution of similar S.G. that of a diamond i.e. 3.52. This "clerici diluted solution" is one heck a solution to identify diamond from rest of the gemstone world.
