Malay Jade is a dyed Quartzite and not in fact a true Jade at all. Quartzite is a very hard stone and similar in looks to marble, however unlike marble quartzite will not scratch with a knife. Quartzite is formed through the alteration of the composition of quartz-rich sandstones.
Afghan Jade: (See Jade) Agate: is the name given to a wide selection of Chalcedony, a form of microcrystalline Quartz (SiO2 - Silicon Dioxide) which is a cryptocrystalline. It is a hard stone, usually within the range of 7-9 on the Moh's scale. It is characterized by its fineness of grain and brightness of color.
