    Jade is between 5.5 to 6.5 on the mohs scale, but a hard stone doesn't necessarily means it will be more difficult to lap than a softer one. Marble (mohs hardness 2-3) is harder to lap than glass. Epoxy is harder to lap than any mineral and it is pretty soft. It's more about wear resistance than hardness.
